Work means Ive not been out as much as I'd like

Went over to Braughton Burrows Nr Barnstaple in on on Sunday - miles and miles of sand dunes, quite a diverse area, plan to return when I have more time

Heres a couple from that day out- hand held no flash- f9 @ 1/100th sec- sigma 105mm macro lens

ID on the Butter fly please:shrug: saw only 2 of these all day

Les :LOL::LOL:
 
The butterfly is lovely, Les, though I can't help with id, sorry.
 
Really like number 1 :)

2 is nice but a little scary for me :p

I looked on a butterfly website for your blue butterfly. Do you think it's this?

Edit - Actually this looks more similar:

Edit 2 - This more so:

Not sure at all now Lucy - youve confused the issue :LOL::LOL::LOL:

and BEE's aint scary girl :eek:

Thank all for the comments

Les :D
 
Hi Les

What was the underwing like, did it have eye spots and orange its common blue, if just blue with spots I would say its a holly blue, and a nice shot it is

Also the bee is top notch (y)

Two good captures there Lez. I like the the butterfly best, well done on getting the bee aswell.
Regards
Paul.
 
Personally like the second the best - Plenty of detail with good lighting and composition but a little noisy.
