Painted Lady previous picture Back to Galleries Next Picture

This particular shot was taken on a trip to south Wales. It was taken on a Canon EOS3, using a Sigma 180mm macro lens, and shot on the new Fuji Velvia 100F slide film.
The Painted Lady Butterfly is quite rare, especially in September – but owing to the extraordinary summer we had in 2003, there were still plenty of good examples of this species to be found in Wales. Once the cold weather sets in, those that are still around are soon lost.
