Close up butterfly

The butterflies are out again. A few warmer days and the little bugs on wings are everywhere.

Good thing as my big zoom is out for repairs :(, macro is still the next best thing IMO.

No idea what kind this is, looks nice though.

Thanks for looking,
Nils

WOW, super close-up of a tiny guy... well, I guess it is tiny because I think it is a small Copper (Lycaena phlaeas)... Taking macros of Butterflies is a lovely and rewarding activity when the birds refuse to collaborate, in my opinion. And this close-up supports my statement! ;) A very loud :clap: to you, Nils!!!
