[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is a widespread species occurring from north Africa to most of Scandinavia. It is most conspicuous during the first warm days of spring when is is one of the first butterflies on the wing following hibernation. It flies again in summer when it feeds for several weeks, storing energy for the forthcoming dormant period. Towards the end of August the perfect butterflies disappear for the winter and until the onset of spring they will not stir even on hot autumn days.

Esta toma ronda la perfección Horia !!

Es una mariposa que por sus colores y textura da dificultades al fotoógrafo, pero la MAGNIFICA luz hace que la plasmaras de manera inmejorable.

A esto se une el oportuno y original detalle de esa colorida flor de explosivos colores, que junto con el insecto crean un conjunto atractivo.

Gran trabajo técnico y artístico: felicidades.

Saludos: Josep Ignasi.

A lovely shot, Horia>the colours are superb and the details awesome!
Cheers!
Goldy
