A lovely backlit summer beauty here Marian and a nice reminder of more to come this year I'm sure.

A beautiful sunny reminder of what is to come (we hope!), Marian. A warm sunny day here yesterday, but back to gloomy and rainy today, so no butterflies for us yet! Hopefully, we'll have a better butterfly summer after the last few years which have not been very good at all - though I shall no doubt get some somewhere in Europe this summer, though I'm not sure where we're going yet.

It's about damn time young lady but you are forgiven because this is one stellar shot of this butterfly. Beautiful.
