What a nice coincidence! This past weekend my husband and I went for a walk nearby and could for the first time make some decent pics of this species of butterfly. It is quite difficult because they almost never stop! (I am sure you know .. :-D)

And your pic is adorable, BTW Posted 5 years ago, modified 5 years ago

  It depends how big your cameralens is Natty. I used a 100-400 mm telelens.

    A great shot, still needed taking - I always suffer from lens-envy, until I think of the weight ;¬) Posted 5 years ago
