Dark Green Fritillary
Argynnis aglaja

This large and powerful butterfly is one of our most widespread fritillaries and can be seen flying rapidly in a range of open sunny habitats. The males look similar to the High Brown Fritillary, which is far rarer but sometimes flies with them on bracken-covered hillsides. The two can be distinguished from the underwing markings, visible when they are feeding on flowers such as thistles.

Superb macro capture of the Dark Green Fritillary with wonderful details, Mariana!

I like the great color contrast between the bright colored butterfly and the blurry green BG. Above all, the textures on the wings of the butterfly are superb. A great composition.

Keep it up!

best regards,
Paras

PS: Don't have more smiley for today :(

Hi Mariana
The colors and the sharpness of the butterfly are so great. I would crop the top of the picture a little bit more.

Seara buna Mariana,
din nou un macro frumos. Stau si ma intreb de unde mai tot scoti asemenea imagini cu fluturi.
O seara linistita,
