Ringlet Buffterfly

Photographers Comments
Took this last week along the Little Ouse River at Santon Downham in Suffolk, part of the Thetford Forest Park. Have not been out with the camera for what seems like months and wondered what all the buttons were for lol.

Fabulous shot, nice detail. nice blurring in the BG and the greens contrast well with the flutterby (as my son calls them!)

Hey Brad

Thanks for taking a peek and your comments. Good to be back too

Hi Lorraine, nice butterfly with good detail. Works well with the green background. Good to see plenty of area around butterfly, as I tend to crop in too close and then lose lots of points at competitions as Natural History shots are suppose to be life like.
