This is a majestic insect, the true aristocrat among the fritillaries. Although reasonably common in woodland throughout Europe, it is always arresting, commanding attention as it swoops and soars along rides or feeds on nectar sources.

Hej,
piękny motyl z tej Dostojki malinnik. Świetne ujęcie.A kolory - światło je podkreśla - widać jak załamuje się na łuskach skrzydeł i daje efekt jedwabiu.
Bardzo mi się podoba...
Gratuluję i pozdrawiam
Alina
