Clouded Yellow

Hi all, I think this is a Clouded Yellow, but I'm happy to be proved wrong!

Thanks for looking

I can't help on the species but it's a beautiful image... the green background really complements the main subject and the flowers... I'd love to have this in my portfolio :)

Many thanks John,

I've just realised the Exif is missing and can't see a way to add it

I'm with John on this...........Great detail and setting, i'd also like this in my collection.

I've just checked my Butterfly charts and would agree this is a Clouded Yello.

Thanks Glenn, there are a couple of very similar species
but I think Clouded Yellow the most likely, I didn't get an
open winged shot which would have made positive ID easier!
