[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The Brimstone Gonepteryx rhamni is a butterfly of the Pieridae family.
It is widespread across Europe, North Africa and eastwards to Mongolia. Often the first butterfly to be seen in the spring, sometimes as early as January when hibernating adults are awoken on a sunny day.There is a popular myth that it is this butterfly which gave us the word BUTTERFLY, a corruption of butter-coloured fly.

Hi Rimantas,

Excellent light in all the set. Very good approach work, me pleases in particular the transparency in the wings of the butterfly. Good composition, very balanced!

TFS!
