[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Wall brown - Lasiommata megera
This is a widespread and often encountered butterfly although it never seems particularly common. It is often one of the earliest species to emerge in spring when it sits in the sunshine absorbing heat from the sun and the rocks. It is usually very alert and hence difficult to approach for photographs.

Hi Horia,

Indeed some species of butterflies are difficult to approach.
They have to be smart, but yet your macro is excellent.
The details are perfect, especially the wings.
The colors are wonderful and great sharpness.
Good evening my friends.
