J-Gibson
Tickled pink
I've been wanting to take a photo of the underside of an Orange Tip for many years but they're so flighty. I finally struck gold when an already cool day gor cooler, forcing this female to land because its flight muscles were too cold for flight. I couldn't believe my luck when it landed on a Red Campion, making for a really colourful combination with the moss-green blotches on the underside of the wings and the out-of-focus flowers in the background - and on my birthday too :)). Taken at Wigan Flashes LNR, Lancs.
