Sharfts of light penetrates the forest canopy, and this one happens to light up this butterfly who was enjoying the warmth of the light. How ever it makes it difficult for the photographer that has to contend with such great contrast of darkness and light.... So decided to get the subject correctly exposed .... Thanking you
