Staying with the butterflies.
I have seen this one also described as a Tree Nymph or Rice Paper Butterfly. I like its distinctive markings.
Another one taken at St. Albans Butterfly World in Hertfordshire.

What a beautiful butterfly Pamela, the background really compliments its beauty
So bright and clear. I like the way the leaves complement the wing shapes. Lovely image.

Beautiful poise and delicacy, in all the elements of the composition.

It is amazing how you do these, Pamela. Breathtaking. I love these tree nymphs. In the Fragile Forest in the Singapore Zoo, you can see them lazily flapping around, not bothered by people. In fact, I was taking a pic of one who'd settled on a bed of gerberas laid out for it, and another landed on my forehead!
