Small white butterfly ("Pieris rapae", in Swedish "Rovfjäril").
Shot with the SMC Pentax-DFA 100mm f2.8 macro (1:1) with a Soligor x1.7 converter and a AF540FGZ flash on the K20D.
First speckled wood butterfly of the year arrived in the garden today so I thought I'd start getting it used to the camera. These butterflies are territorial and tend to hang around the same area for weeks.
I was outside the other day walking around the garden and spotted this little guy on our Asters. Actually there were several species and they were everywhere getting the last nectar of the year.

Such a hard day to pick a photo..... after several years of saying I was going to go, I made it to the Franklin Park Conservatory for their annual butterfly exhibit. And I took lots of photos. Pretty butterflies.... so many, all over, not wanting to stay still for me. So if you like butterfly and insect macros, I've posted several of the shots from the visit in my stream.
The drive to Fermyn Woods and time spent tracking down this beautiful, if elusive, butterfly were well worth it in the end.
