Peacock Butterfly
Posted by MaryB (Staffordshire, United Kingdom) on 7 May 2009 in Animal & Insect and Portfolio.
This is another hand held close up, which i've cropped to get closer and to remove some of the tatty flowers, that cluttered up the shot.
The butterfly was actually in the neighbours garden, so I had to strech out fully with my arm pits resting on there wall, not an easy thing to do lol, so i'm really happy that i managed to get this shot. The things we do to get a picture :D
