Description

Here is a small butterfly that is common to this area. It has a wingspan of one inch or 25mm. I have a couple open wing captures from Sunday as well and maybe can post one tomorrow. Thanks for looking, -GB-

Lovely capture and execution! The perspectives are wonderful, as are the colours and lighting! That shade of green is lovely indeed, a definite refresher for the soul to take in!
