[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I have posted this shot to replace my previous effort of the Brimstone.
The Brimstone occurs in scrubby grassland, woodland, hedgerows, and open ground wherever foodplants are available in sunny positions. The butterfly ranges widely and can often be seen flying along roadside verges and tracks with hedgerows.
The Brimstone has spread in recent years, mainly in northern England. When this butterflies roost among foliage, the angular shape and the strong veining of their wings closely resemble leaves

Hi Mr. Les!

Much better than before Brimstone (I see it looking backward in your gallery)! ... here is gloss, beautiful color, light accurate and balanced, excellent focus on the insect. The composition could have been a little more toward the right third, but a matter of taste! ... good job!

TFS & Nice week for you!
