Flower ?

2007.08.07

5 1/2 hours walk, up a pass, down to Lake and "refuge" Louvie,
and finally all the way down to Fionnay.

This butterfly was fooled by the colour of my walking shoes

Carley beautiful shot! I've never seen this butterfly before....it's lovely. And you must have been able to both stand very still and shoot very quickly to get this shot!

Anonymous User These butterflies love hiking, and they love hitching a ride wherever the go!! The name of this one is called the "The Hitchiker" - and if you believe what I just said, then you would believe thaty donkies can fly!!?? %-)))

A great quality shot Christine, and nice "new" boots!! But I think your shoelaces are undone??

Boots are made for walk'n!!

carmitage Silke I understand now why the muscles of my left leg were
in such a bad state after the walk !
Mme R. Thank you for the kiss, one in return
Boots are made for walk'n ...
well spotted, the shoe laces were undone I was trying
to release a cramp
Ron this butterfly was very disappointed, he then tried my hat

Thank you all my friends for your comments

photopoet The butterfly selected a fine boot for his peregrinations.

Sheldon Nice to have close encounters - that butterfly is very different to any I have seen here.

Your boots are very clean for hiking boots - are they new?

kangshung Great capture! It's always very reassuring when a butterfly lands on you.

chipotle the splash of orange in his wings coordinates with your boots.
