Another shot from Wednesday's trip to the Cleveland Botanical Garden; check beck because I am going to identify all these butterflies as soon as I get a field guide.

Closeup of an unspecified orange swallowtail butterfly!

100mm f/2.8 Macro + Macro Ring Light (MR-14EX) set on -2 to balance the light

I'm pretty sure it's this species. Only 6 species of Fritillary occur on Lesvos and this looks like none of the others! Achladeri Stream, Lesvos, Greece. 05-05-2009.

I was happy to capture this small butterfly again :-)

It's one of my very favourite butterfly. I love its blue tone.
