Hi Christos, it doesn't matter if we don't know the ID, the basic - the photo - is so beautiful. Excellent sharpness and the colours are so marvelous. I like it very much, thanks for sharing it with us

Christos:
You really had me scratching my head with this one! It can't be Maniola jurtina because the forewings of that species are concave, not convex - it's Coenonympha pamphilus, the Small Heath. However, the colours are a bit off, making it look more intensely coloured than it really is (and more like Meadow Brown) - maybe a bit too much with the "levels" adjustment? Be careful - a lot of butterfly ID requires accurate colour reproduction. Nice, sharp shot of this little butterfly, though.
Regards, Nigel.

I agree with Merlin. Its a Coenonympha pamphilus (Linnaeus, 1758), not only by color of the wings, but because the too snall white dots on the underside wings. The Maniola jurtina doesn't have them.
Nice shot!

First I thought for ID to Maniola jurtina but Merlin seems right with Coenonympha pamphilus. This shot is wonderful. Composition, colors and sharpness are great, congratulations Christos !
