The Malayan

Hi..

Last tuesday i went on a dedicated butterfly photography shoot with a new friend from the Butterfly Circle forum.. He brought me to Telok Blangah Hill Park where we spent about 4 hours searching and taking photos of the elusive insects..

This little butterfly is called The Malayan (Megisba Malaya Sikkima). It is a small 1cm large butterfly that is not very easy to approach.. The best part was how my new friend could see it in the first place.. But thanks to him i managed to get a nice and rare photo of this butterfly..

Should be going for another shoot with another new friend tomorrow! Hope i get somemore beautiful shots.. :)
