Butterflies: Peacock

Rain is pissing down from a gray sky outside as I post this.

To make sure I don't forget what summer and blue skies and proper daylight are like, I'm going to do a short series on butterflies in The Netherlands, starting with the European peacock (Aglais io), dagpauwoog in Dutch.

Not a rare butterfly at all, this one, but a real looker:

^{Olympus Stylus 1s, 200mm, ISO200, f8, 1/320s}

^{Olympus Stylus 1s, 300mm, ISO100, f5.6, 1/1250s}

^{Olympus Stylus 1s, 300mm, ISO200, f8, 1/200s}

^{Olympus Stylus 1s, 200mm, ISO200, f5.6, 1/400s}

^{Olympus XZ-1, 112mm, ISO100, f5.6, 1/160s}

Even the shutter speeds remind me of summer.

Thanks for watching!
