Cropped Complimenting Colours - _TNY_9880C
This is from yet another time when I got caught using the MP-E65mm lens to take the sharpest shots of very small bugs - and ended up finding something significantly larger that wouldn't fit in frame.
It's a female brimstone butterfly (Gonepteryx rhamni) refueling on a thistle near the boat pier at Lillsved in the northern part of the peninsula of Värmdö, just east of Stockholm, Sweden.
My mother treated me, the wife and my son to a most excellent lunch at Café Sjöstugan right next to the pier in late July and of course couldn't leave the camera at home.
This is a cropped version of the shot which I posted a little while ago as I think it shows the detail better this way.
