Description

Hello again!! As promised I have tried to take some new photos... a tough assignment because not much survives the summer here in Perth! This butty did though, he's a "Lesser Wanderer" or Danaus chrysippus. This is a close relative of the Monarch butterfly, but unlike the Monarch, is native to Australia. Hope you're all well, thanks for all the messages. Will stop by again soon =) Selective colour done with Photoshop Elements.

The focus is just right. I love the colour contrasts of the butterfly and the b/w background. Loverly capture.
