To complement yesterday's upload, this is the long-tailed blue, still to be found in the meadows, even now it has turned much cooler. This one was not as willing to pose, could only manage two quick images before flitting off to an unreachable flower.

So you only had time to take 2 brilliant shots then 
Lovely work as always Carol, it always gives me a little boost in the morning seeing your work.

Another grand capture Carol, you are so lucky to still have them around
You are lucky enough, Carol, to bring out the in and out of wings of L.boeticus. - Raja.
V1 is particularly beautiful, I love the oblique angle on the wings.

Two real belters Carol, you've captured its markings and furry detail perfectly
Both have their own merits Carol, but both excellent captures!

So nice to see this beautiful butterflies as, with the summer we've had this year, have hardly seen any at all. I think the only ones I have seen were at Tropical World in Leeds, and they weren't willing to pose either!

What a stunning capture and presentation Carol,well done..Lin
Well capture, really glad to see the inside. You have shown his pretty tail very well!
Sorry to be so long in coming back to you, Carol, to thank you for your kind comments. I wanted to add my comment to the legion of commentators above (!!) - as I always have what is verging on awe at anyone who manages to keep them still long enough to take the beautiful image you have here. What georgeous colours!
