Well, here goes! This is my first attempt at putting a photo on DPS.

It's a Speckled Wood butterfly resting on unripe blackberries. Taken in a country lane Nr. Ellesmere, Shropshire, England

Lovely shot. It's so hard taking pictures of butterflies as they don't stay still for long!

Thanks, it was a shot I enjoyed taking, although I must have looked very odd, chasing butterflies up and down the lane!
