Butterfly Macro

Last weekend I was chasing bees and hoverflies around my garden. Yesterday I chased this butterfly

Not bad huh ?

Not bad at all Phil...looks like it is flying along with you actually chasing it......coming into land!
Stunning colours here...you caught the vivid butterfly & buddleia in full glory!

@allie912 thanks allison, it's a shame there's a tiny bit of lavender blurring the back of the butterfly
