I found this one in shady area. Seem to be a rare species. I managed to get 2 pictures and this is the better one.

Hello Jitti!
You are right, there is no limit for the nature and this photo cleary shows it! What a fantastic, elongated wingd this species has!!! :)
I know some other species from this family (Thecla genus) which looks similar in shape of wings but this is really beauty one!
TFS and best greetings,
Radomir

Hi Jitti.
Dark key of execution of this shot is very impressive. I also like your work with flash. Butterfly is illuminated perfectly: we can see all details at nice lighting. Composition is very good too. Inclined leaf is looks very nice as well as the remote blurred BG. My best regards and TFS. Perfect job.

Hello Jitti,
Wow, that's a really long-tailed butterfly you're presenting here! Sharp and with interesting details. Its light colours stand out nicely from the background in this very nice composition.

Hello Jitti,
Fine capture of B. phocides, the flash helping to produce good sharpness and colouring, though here there is a little 'nightime' effect. Excellent composition.
TFS and best wishes, Ivan

bonjour jitti
ce papillon est deja tres beau posé mais il doit etre magnifique lorsqu'il vole avec sa grande queue.
tres bon piqué et juste assez de lumonosité.

Hi Jitti,
Wonderful capture of this butterfly. Superb light management in these difficult conditions. Sharp details and a great BG. Special leaf platform that. Very nicely composed. Kudos.

bien vu ce papillon est parfait, bon bg qui le fait bien ressortir
du bon travail
bravo, amitiès, merci

Hi JC,
An interesting and unusual species of butterflies, indeed. Must certainly be rare, I agree. The twin long tail is its special feature and even the colours and patterns on its wings are uncommon.
Very good capture, giving the impression of night, as Ivan has rightly pointed out.
Well done.

WOW, Jitti! What a beautiful specimen!
Theclinae are my favourite butterflies!
I like very much the shape of their wings, the beautiful big eyes, the antenae and the little legs. You captured this one with marvellous details.
Thank you very much! I love it!
My compliments and best regards
Maite

Hello JC,
Wonderful details in this special fellow!
Good light makes the insect stand out on the dark blurry back...
I like the composition, it is like he is about to take off!
Greetings,

Buenos detalles y agradable presentación Jitti.
La luz del flash ha hecho que resaltara aun más la mariposa.
Buena captura.
Saludos, JL.

Hola Jitti,
Buena presentación, gran nitidez y excelente iluminación, el contraste con el fondo hace destacar muy bien la mariposa. Un cordial saludo

Hello jitti !
This is surely a very beautiful species, I love his long "tail". The warm colors and the markings on his wings are gorgeous too. Beautiful composition, excellent details, and a nice dark BG which makes the butterfly stand out. Very well done !
valerie.

Cheers!
