Number 1000

Marbled White (Melanargia galathea).

 

My 1000th posting and I decided that I should try to get an updated version of one of my favourite images in the time I've been a part of Flickr.

 

I am pleased with this one although I think I still prefer the one from a few years ago where the butterflies also had a hint of dew on them.

 

These two performed brilliantly though and I managed shots from both sides, with this one shooting towards the rising sun, a great welcome to the new day.

 

For once the wind was not blowing either, one of the pitfalls of living on the coast!!

 

Many thanks to all my Flickr friends for the support and encouragement, helping me strive to improve.
