Description

There is an Island chain in the Great Barrier Reef, on the North/East Coast of Australia, one is called Dunk Island...and these Butterfly's are named after that Island. I caught these two Dunk Island butterfly's doing the 'Tango L'Amour', courting each other in our garden between the Jade succulents; a bit tricky to recognise them, with their turquoise colour against the green background. That is why I decided to post a sequence of these dancing butterfly's. I was really fascinated by the motion blurr of their wings, they were incredibly fast and hard to capture. *BB* do yourself a favour and ZOOM IN...

What a treat, Brigitte! Marvellous, and the blurring adds to the impression of eager lust! Almost as impressive are the plants..I have to tenderly overwinter my single specimen in the greenhouse!

Beautiful captures of these two romantic butterflies. Aren't they a wonderful colour and they do look super in zoom with the blurred effect of their wings. I hope you are going to miss the storm.
