[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Here we can see this specie with its wigs wide open.
It's difficult o to catch it like that. I only could take a few shots. Never did it again till today!
This one was resting on the soil, warming the wings, because it was a cold day on March. I was lucky to saw it before it saws me.
It's not the same individual as the other photo. The other one was younger
As we can se it's beautiful by the upper of side the wings too.

Se notes about on the other picture here on TN:
http://www.treknature.com/gallery/photo23245.htm

This was an old individual because the color wasn’t as bright as the young ones. Usually the yellow color is more bright and intensive and the red too.
I never had the opportunity to see newly individuals on my region, but I hope to see it sooner or later.
This species flies too early, from February till July, and usually I only have possibility to photograph later on July, that’s why I only see old individuals.

That is one of the most colorful butterflies I have seen, Paulo. You captured it with sharp details and good exposure. The BG is a bit distracting, but no matter. Great shot and TFS. : )

Πολύ ωραία η πεταλούδα που φωτογράφισες Paulo. Τα χρώματα είναι όμορφα αλλά το υπόβαθρο δεν βοηθάει. (gr)

Hola Paulo: Es una mariposa muy bella, yo nunca la habia visto. Que bonita distribución y forma de los colores. Me gustan las manchas doradas en forma de corazon en su abdomen. Muy bien captada sin que la diversidad del fondo la opaque. Saludos Cordiales. Feliz Año 2006!. *Ninfa Urania*

Ola Paulo,
Excellent BFLY capture my friend.
I like your pov,dof,colors,sharpness,focus,framing and note.Obrigado:)
Chris

What dramatic patterns on it's wings, so nicely captured. I can almost hear you holding your breath while taking this one before it flies away. Wonderful sharpness and color, the lighting great, the only downfall is the plain brown dirt background, but then maybe it shows off it's colors more, well done.

Hi Paul!

a beautifull picture and species.

here in Romania we have another 2 species, one very rare (z.cerisy ferdinandi). in the spring (may) i have made some good picture at Zerynthia polyxena (maybe i will put one some day).
