Hypolimnas bolina bolina (Great Eggfly) ~ Male

[Leopard Lacewing]

Hi all,

Visited AHBT yesterday and shot this Great Eggfly. After checking CP4 and Khew's shots on the female Great Eggfly in our checklist. The shot that I got should be a Male.

See below half-opened record shot... A very nice blue with total black upper side wings.

BTW, AHBT was closed for some work... They have trimmed lots of plants and activities is extremely low.

Cheers!

ohhh, the lighting control is very well controlled. I love the textures of the different shades of brown on the underwing. The clean background and undistracting perch also adds well to the comp.

Being critical, I would prefer to rotate the butterfly anti-clock wise a bit so that it does not appear to be "sliding down".

Went to AHBT yesterday. Couldn't enter as they were still cutting down branches. At least I saw you Great mormon!
