The butterflies above are from my archive and I believe they were all photographed in Borneo’s rainforest some years ago. Maybe someone out there knows what kind of butterflies these are?
Yesterday I saw this tiny dragonfly here in Malta but the beauty flew away too fast.
Without my macro lens this time but at least I got a fairly good close up.

Vilka exotiska skönheter, i dubbel bemärkelse. Har aldrig sett liknade fjärilar, de är sååååå vackra. Googlade lite och fick lära mig att det finns fler än 2 000 olika fjärilar i Borneo/Malaysia. Och då hittade jag inte ens dina bland bilderna. Fantastiska makron!
Trollsländor har jag ju sett även här, men aldrig en som är så liten och genomskinlig.

Hej Anita! Hoppas allt är bra med dig! Är ni kvar på Malta?
Bilderna är fantastiska! Svårt att komma nära fjärilar ju!
Må så gott, Kram!

Are some moths too? Good capture, Anita as always. Your Macro photography is scaling heights :-). Borneo rain forest. The following sites might give you an idea of who these beauties are. Might need to dig deeper into these sites (Norton certified SAFE sites)

I believe there are some moths. Thanks a lot for your kind comment Ranjit and of course for the links. I really wish I could travel back to Borneo soon. There are so much to explore in the rainforest and especially in Sarawak were we usually stay.
