Nice one, Ian. Showing your versatility now - birds, mice, bf members, butterflies - what next?
 
Thanks Christine, she's a pretty little thing - I thought the background should match her eyes!

Thanks Ted, I've never photographed a snake - I may have to travel to Westminster for that shoot!
 
Lovely shot, Ian. Its a very beautiful butterfly. My first photo of it waits still in the Great Future. |=)|
