One of the hardest species to photograph in my opinion in spite of the fact they are very common. I found this one feeding at Presque isle on some wild sunflowers.

D7000, Sigma 150, f16 @ 1/250 ISO 200, SB-R200, handheld, crop.

Good crop, Tracy and nice balance between subject and perch.

Excellent details, fine active feeding pose. Nice light as well.
I think sulphurs are the hardest - I've been able to get very close to Cabbage whites a few times.

Hi

A good up close view - and certainly an underrated butterfly imo


All the best
