Hi Andy, you are lucky! I was chasing this butterfly for hours on sunday but without success - they never sat down longer than 1/100 second :-) Superb light and colours, POV and details. Dandelion looks great with this Orange-tip.

What a wonderful butterfly Andy. I haven't seen it before. The colors are very special and intense. As a fan of the Orange soccer squad I can very much appreciate the color orange. :) Seriously, a very nice picture with great details. Well done & TFS!

Very nice Andy, looks like you had the same weather as us yesterday. I captured a couple of them but not as well as this one. a difficult one to get as it never settles for long. The whites look good which is always difficult. TFS

Very nice Andy.
Got a few shots of some of these myself the other day, not as good as this though, nicely exposed with good detail and perspective.

This is very nice Andy. As you say in your note, "it always can be better" but that happens in every shot, I am afraid.
I have never seen one of this here, it looks a bit like the cabbage buttefly but it is totally different.
I like it very much, DOF is great, POV too according to the circumstances, and the exposure is on the spot.
Here spring is advanced, but it rained every weekend in the last 2 monts, and I only like to "trek" with rain when I go for my mushrooms in autumn :D

Hi Andy
A very nice b'fly and good details and exposure. We have a similar one, but red orange wings, not burnt orange like here. Must post one oneday for you to have a look at. Nice note too.

Great capture of a very elusive species. So far, I've only seen them flutter by at high speed, I've never been able to get a shot at any of these..
Good sharpness, DOF, POV and details. Nice handling of the whites.
