Lovely colours, Annette.

A super close up Annette, the detail and colours have been perfectly recorded. According to UK Butterflies website several species were sighted on New Years Day when we had a sunny start to 2013
Glorious butterfly image. Only just realised this is the 30th click and your well deserved RC.
I'm looking forward to spring also and all the monarchs coming through on their migration route to Canada.
A good shot of this flutterby, with it being sharp where it counts most: the antennae and the head.
