A green butterfly
![]()
This green butterfly was resting beside a footpath in Sulkava, close to my stepmother's summer cottage. It won the shared first price with subject "butterfly" (surprise!) in winter 2000, despite the fact that the focusing is a little bit behind he butterfly - I did not have a tripod in hand when we found it, so I had to take the photo handheld. It was not meant to be sent to a competition, but I did choose it anyway.
