[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This butterfly is as large as my hand, the open wings on top are black and white. When folded the wings are brillant colors on the outside. I have no idea what it's name is.

Hi Gloria.

The butterfly has fantastic colors and you captured it precisely. I wish there was a cleaner BG but as you know things don't work in that way in nature photography.

Well Done & TFS.

Hallo Gloria,
just to identify the species:
-- Delias pasithoe
-- family: Pieridae
The species occurs in Nepal, Sikkim, Myanmar, Malaysia and south China. Wingspan is between 55 and 70 mm.

Bonjour Gloria,
Ce papillon est superbe avec ses couleurs très vives. Je me demande comment il peut se défendre en attirant ainsi l'attention. Bien fait !

Salut Gloria
Superbe composition,j'aime bien l'éclairage et les magnifique couleurs il manque un peu de nette sur le haut des ailes de l'insecte,félicitation pour le beau BG.

Bravo et au revoir....JP

Hello Gloria,
Interesting picture! The maddy ground doesn't look very nice but the butterfy is very pretty and you've captured it nicely. Good POV and framing.
WELL DONE!

Gloria,
She is, simply put, STUNNINGLY BEAUTIFUL.
The name matters little for now; all that matters is:
A BIG THANK YOU FOR SHARING.
It is called delias pasithoe. Never saw them in Goa.
But, in Kashmir, I had seen a few.
Well focused. Great and sharp on details. Congratulations.
Best regards from your friend in Canada, Mario.
