Argynnis paphia

Another Fritillary from Greece. These can also be seen here in the UK, but I've never seen them perch so nicely here.

Mt. Mainalo, Peloponnese
03/07/12
Altitude: 1514m

Nikon D3S/200f4micro/circular polarizer/SB600/softbox
ISO 500 1/250 f/18 handheld

Thanks for looking!

Hi

A lovely butterfly and a fine image – well composed and a fine earthy backdrop to set it all off, works for me.

And it’s been a long long time since I last saw one of these :lol: :lol: :lol:

All the best
Matthew

The active pose and low angle are super, the butterfly looks very fine.

Nice all around image, going slightly lower would be my preference, but that's just a personal view and I think it's still a great shot. Cheers!
