Small Copper - 13-07

Spotted this beautiful little butterfly on some clover in a field. I took a quick photo before it was gone. I lost sight of it and couldn't find it or another one. I think I have identified it as a small Copper? but my butterfly identity skills are not great!
Lovely capture.

I don't know what it is but it's beautiful anyway.

Can't help you with the identification but it's a great picture!

Super capture! I have little luck trying to capture a butterfly image this summer!

By the way what lens did you use? Did you use a tripod? I've not been very successful in my butterfly shots this year

@rosiekind http://www.kenrockwell.com/tokina/100mm-f28.htm I use this great for macro and lots of other shots. No tripod find it too restrictive but it would help at times. Would like to try a mono pod. Also a light ring would be good I think. Thanks for the comments and interest.
