Fabulous, Mark .... a beautifully structured image and such sharpness. How do you find your lovely subjects - and how do you get them to sit still!!!!

Very good shot of this Rapsweißling. You captured him in a wonderful light. Excellent details on the wings. It's always so interesting to read your stories. Next time I see one of those I'll try to smell the lemon scent...assumed I recognize it :-)
