......Small Pearl-bordered Fritillary taken this afternoon. Beautiful little things, especially when you catch one with its wings closed. Advice / critique welcome as always.

Thanks for looking.

Lewis.

Lovely shot Lewis, I love that orange dot on the antenna! I think if you'd taken a slight step back and included the entire two buds at the bottom it might have been better, but thats very minor!
