That is just gorgeous colour  and they look fairly "new ".... looks like they are on a teasel ... Lovely image John .. you have posted some excellent butterfly images  since you came back ... thanks   for that .

You've really shown the velvety texture of those wings .. beautifully.

Thank you Polly!

After many disappointing visits to Haugh Wood this summer it turned out really good last Saturday, although I didn't manage to get shots of all 15 species I saw I really enjoyed myself.
