Description


Both Alan and I were enthralled by this little beauty with its transparent wings. I believe it's common name is glass wing, I'm sure Danny will correct me if I'm wrong on that one. I only saw one of these during the time we spent at the place. I can't wait to go back but the next time we will be better prepared. For one thing I will be wearing a brightly coloured shirt, the number of them landing on people was enormous but they did prefer the brighter colours. I will post some later that landed on Alan. Thanks for stopping by for a look and for any comments that you care to make. May the sun shine down on you where ever you are.

Did you use the super macro mode on your fugi? Sounds like a fun place to take photos. Well done.

This is a real treasure of a shot Jeff. Certainly for me Jeff this one was probably MY favourite. I had no idea that a butterfly could have such transparent wings. Amzing! You can see the leaf behind through the wing very clearly. I can't wait to go back either!
