FZ1K2's first Small Copper

FZ1K2 couldn't resist this autumnal colour scheme and neither could I.

Beautiful shot. Like the light and textures. Good bokeh.

A beautifully composed image - I love the dullness of the small butterfly against the shiny autumnal tones of the bramble leaves - fav (and a follow ! )

Nice shot, I agree with Beryl, the different textures are really interesting.

Thank you all very much. This was a "must" when I saw the Small Copper land on the bramble, it looks posed, I think, but who can train a butterfly?

Beautiful, I've yet to see one of these. Fav! 😀

@carolmw Thank you much, they are having a very good 3rd brood this year. Hope you manage to see one, they tend to be in short grassy areas and fly low to the ground.

Beautiful on black.

I've seen more of these this year than in any previous year for some reason. Love the colour scheme too

[Jesika]

@mandygravil You're right! Thanks for the tip

@julienne1 They've had a superb 3rd brood and I've seen more at the Meadow recently than collectively in the previous years of visiting.
