Another one from my recent trip. Distinguished from Spotted Fritillary by the triangular rather than rounded black marginal blobs!

Nikon D800E / 200f4micro / SB600 / softbox
ISO 1250 1/320 f/16 handheld

All best!

Hi

A very nice shot - good job of paralleling the subject which is no mean feat in this pose - and a delightfully attractive butterfly

All the best
Matthew

Love the eye detail and this perspective - pretty colors and soft light.
