  2. Hi Katie,
    I love both of them but the copper picture has a better composition I think. Beautiful!

    What a lovely shot of the Small Copper. This is the first time that I recall ever seeing one and to see my first in such a lovely setting is a treat

  5. Hello! Thanks for all your lovely comments. The Small Copper is one of my favourite butterflies, and they seem to love the Helenium, which I also rather like.

    I've got some more Small Copper photos on Flickr
