Two excellent photos Carol ! I can size them by comparing them to the size of the bougainvilla's little white flower. I love V1 where the one wing casts a shadow on the other - so cool

She's so beautiful, as befits her name. Love the colours and light through her wings especially in V1 but V2 has such lovely details too.

They even have a hint of toning colour matching that Bougainvillea which
always reminds us of Greece or Europe! Ah sunshine!

Two stunning close ups of this member of the brimstone family. What a beautiful yellow colour he/she is, I think the Big O is rather miffed! Wink
