And yet again...

i went to the zoo in Amsterdam (you just go there faster, when you have a year pass) Spend most of the time in the Butterfly garden. Its rather warm there (about 30C) and outside it was snowing. So i didnt have to think long on where i would take some pics.
Here they are:
#1

#2

#3

#4

#5

#6

#7 Im really happy with this one, cause you hardly ever see one of these butterflies sitting with their wings opened up. Normally they close their wings as soon as they land, but this one had an itch or something and opened up a few times

#8

#9

#10

#11

More to be seen on www.daanschouwe.nl
Thanks for looking

Thanks for the replies everyone
The butterflies in #5 were pretty funny. Cause i saw them flying around too. Well, one was flying and the other one was just hanging there. Couldnt get a picture of it though.

I like 4 the most. The butterfly's wings are defined by the out-of-focus thing in the background.
