So perhaps you were expecting something different when you read the title of the blog today but this beautiful Monarch butterfly (Danaus plexippus) is worthy of the title; there is something very regal about it with its bold colours and striking pattern. With wings outstretched it looks very much like a stained glass window, and close up it has such poise.
I think you will agree this is a real beauty.
Photography requires a great deal of patience, whatever subject you choose to focus on but with wildlife it is even more necessary and butterflies and insects in particular can be a real challenge. When you finally get the shot you want though, it is absolutely worth it.
