Hello Nick,
A fine colourful capture of a fine specimen of a Peacock butterfly displaying its open wings against the ground as it suns itself. Technically of a fine standard and well composed in this diagonal position.
Thanks and all the best,
Ivan

Esta mariposa siempre llama la atención por esas curiosas tonalidades que nunca se sabe si es desenfoque o es que es así !
Un abrazo.
