Marbled White - Melanargia galathea

By Mendipman  
One from a couple of years ago, taken in the early morning at Priddy Mineries on the Mendips in Somerset. There was a little bit of dew about but about 10 minutes after I took this it tipped down, testing the weather sealing on both me and the camera.

Best viewed large.

Many thanks for the votes and comments on the previous upload of the Green Shieldbug and especially to eyelevelphotographyuk, Mike_Smith and HobbitDave for their User Awards, very much appreciated.
