I didn't realise you had them over there too Stanley - I thought they were 'ours' LOL.

A super picture you've taken of this guy - many thanks for sharing his beauty with us my friend.

A splendid shot of a red admiral with a vivid green backdrop, Stanley. It's nice to see its wings spread out completely flat.
