The blue one is the male, the brown one the female (underwing also of the female). I found the male picture and then carried on looking for the name of the brown one. After lots of fruitless looking I discovered it was the female of the species :-doh Since they were at the same spot at the same time and had similar shape etc I should have known.... but I am learning :)
These were in France, Northern half of the country.
Beautiful captures Louise, that Fuji seems to handle macro very well. :)
Excellent captures. Well done. :)
Yep, I'm impressed by the macro on this camera - so many of these macro shots involve me leaning over with nothing to steady me... so it could be even better if I had a monopod :)
What's the insect behind in the third photo?
Well - a closer picture of him is on its way... once I've worked out what he is :)
I'd look it up, but someone's nicked my books. :eek: :-lmao
Some one has nicked my book too.
It could be a Dune beetle. Or a Soldier Beetle or a cardinal Beetle.
