Wood White butterfly
These butterflies are very small and becoming quite rare here in the UK with only a few areas where they can be found.

that is a great shot Geoffrey and even more impressive given that it was taken handheld. Lovely composition and great sharpness throughout the butterfly.

A cracking image Geoff. Love the perch - it couldn't have chosen a nicer flower to land on. BG excellent too.

Nice to see you posting here at long last :smile: :wavey:

Thanks everyone :smile:

Thanks Maggie, I've been keeping an eye on this forum for a few months now but was a bit reluctant to join as the quality of the photos on here were so high and I must have the most basic camera here :redface: but I bit the bullet and here I am and I've received a great welcome :smile:

Geoff.
