How pretty this is Shane.

A super picture you've taken of this butterfly - many thanks for showing him to us.

Beautiful little thing. I love Blues but they are often difficult for me to photograph. Excellent closed-wing view taken on a beautiful flower. It is always great to see endemics too. Fabulous work Shane!!! TFS!!!
