13/52 Butterfly

Firstly I'm running quite behind with commenting, sorting photos and loading but hopeful I'll get back on track so please bear with me!

 

I'd had a bee in my bonnet about taking some photos of butterflies for a while so planned a trip to Leeds tropical house in Roundhay Park - it was really warm/humid... and steamy... so had a real battle with my lenses!

 

There weren't a huge amount of butterflies and unfortunately none close enough to try out my Raynox closeup lenses so had to use my 70-300mm and crop in a bit - wish I'd taken note of what all the butterfly types were - maybe one was a Zebra? Will perhaps look up and post info later
