[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Belenois aurota (Fabricius, 1793), also known as the African Caper White or Brown-veined White, is an African butterfly, well-known during summer and autumn when large numbers migrate north-east over the interior.

The species occurs over the greater part of sub-Saharan Africa. Host plants are almost exclusively from the family Capparaceae and in particular the genera Boscia, Maerua and Capparis. Eggs are laid in batches of 20 or so, while the newly-hatched larvae are gregarious.

Lovely composition, not to mention terrific macro. The notes are helpful and allow me to understand even more about these delicate creatures. Exposure is great, and so it the point of view.

Hello Karl,
This is a really nice picture, with good composition, sharp focus and very natural colours. The DOF is excellent , with only the near antenna out of focus. A very realistic rendition., Thanks.
