[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The Large White is common throughout Europe, North Africa and Asia to the Himalayas often in agricultural areas, meadows and parkland. It is a strong flier and the British population is reinforced in most years by migrations from the continent. Scattered reports of the Large White from the northeastern United States (New York, Rhode Island and Maine) over the past century are of a dubious nature and indicate either accidental transport or intentional release. Such introductions threaten to establish this agricultural pest in North America.

The wings are white, with black tips on the forewings of both males and females, the female also has two black spots on each forewing. The underside is a pale greenish and serves as excellent camouflage when at rest. The black markings are generally darker in the summer brood. Its wingspan is 5 to 6.5 cm.

Olá, Siegfried!

Well done job. Congratulations and TFS.

Grande abraço,

Hello, Siegfried -
Your Large White caught my eye since I posted an image of its close relative, the Small White, a few moments ago. Very close and sharp macro details of this creature's wings - the speckled pattern and the textures are well shown. The background is smoothly blurred and the flowers provide a burst of color. Well done.

Lovely macro capture of Large White with superb details, Siegfried!
The sharpness and POV are perfect and the colors are very natural and extremly well shown through your capture. Well done!

Viele Grüße,
Paras
