Nice details and colours. I liked the rocks in the background, they offer a good contrast. Thanks for sharing.

Mohan,
This is a beautiful butterfly. Though I am passionate about tigers, I can understand if someone chooses to devote an entire lifetime photographing butterflies. This butterfly is very pretty. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
Sabyasachi

Akkamalai is a place near to Valparai in Anamalai Tiger Reserve (ATR). This place is about 100 KMs from Coimbatore. TFC!

Wonderful image of a not so common butterfly. Nice fresh specimen ..
Maybe a off center composition in 3:2 ratio with the butterfly in the lower right corner would also work .
