Description
Hello again!!
As promised I have tried to take some new photos... a tough assignment because not much survives the summer here in Perth!
This butty did though, he's a "Lesser Wanderer" or Danaus chrysippus. This is a close relative of the Monarch butterfly, but unlike the Monarch, is native to Australia.
Hope you're all well, thanks for all the messages. Will stop by again soon =)
Selective colour done with Photoshop Elements.
