Marsh Fritillaries

My best shots from a visit to Finglandrigg Wood NR in Cumbria last week:

As is typical whenever I take my camera anywhere, it was quite windy, so it was a bit of an exercise in frustration trying to get sharp shots, but I eventually got there!

Cheers,

Very nicely shot, I love the patterns and colour palette of these guys.
