Orange Sulphur For Illinois In April - Colias eurytheme

Orange Sulphur For Illinois In April - Colias eurytheme
Norris City, White County, Illinois, USA
April 15, 2007
Size: Approx. 2.5 cm long
Data posting for this species in Illinois, for the month of April.

The exposure was 12 seconds long using available light, f/36 and ASA 100.

Spring form
I thought it might be worth pointing out that this is a really good example of the small early spring (or sometimes late fall or winter) form that tends to have narrow borders and gray scaling below (making them look a bit more like C. philodice). Really nice shot, impressive for a low light shot!

ISO
I meant ISO not ASA. What was I thinking?
