[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is another picture from Omkar hills which is brimming with butterfly life. What surprises me is that the butterflies in this wilderness is much more colorful and healthier that the butterflies we find in parks / gardens within the city. Here again, the shot is straight forward with no special lighting.

This is The Common Leopard Phalanta phalantha which is a sun-loving butterfly of the Nymphalid or Brush-footed Butterfly family.
