Another switch. This speckled wood presented itself with a nice diffuse background so I'll go with it for now. Besides, it's my first butterfly snapped with my new Sony A700.

Peacock dangling precariously upside down from a bluebell. Despite less than perfect focus I picked this for its comedy value.

Compare the Orange Tip -

In the light of the
fantastic GH shot by FISHiEE - (nice lighting - do I detect a hint of fill-in flash?) changed to this one from Mill Road Cemetery yesterday morning.

You have to resize the image beforehand. I crop to 800 x 800.

Thanks Charles. There were loads of them in France and really photographer friendly unlike the British ones. I even have pics of one on my finger!
