Stationary Clipper - _TNY_6364

The clipper (Parthenos sylvia) is a powerful flyer found in forests in southeast Asia, typically near rivers.

 

This particular specimen was shot closer to home though, at the Haga Ocean butterfly house in Solna, Sweden. It wasn't particularily interested in flying while I saw it though and stayed still on this leaf which meant I could try out different settings to see the results - but I really which it had chosen a leaf a little closer.
