Re: My colorful wing
Hi Walad,
Welcome to the CiC forums from me.
Two very nice photos there, a great start.
It seems Singapore specialises in butterflies with decoy markings so predators (and me) get confused which way they're facing (and hence likely to fly).
I initially thought it a pair mating, but I see no legs.
I don't think I've ever seen such examples before, reminds me of aeroplanes with forward swept wings.
Cheers,

Re: My colorful wing
I, too, was confused by that first picture. It is a beautiful shot, though, both the butterfly and the background.
