    Hello all,

    Here is a butterfly photographed in Quebec (June 2010), Canada.

    I'm suspecting a Spring Azure (Celastrina ladon). Am I right?

    I think you are right. The first picture I looked at didn't seem like it but I dug a little farther and found one that looked like yours.

    Great capture and even though he isn't colorful like some, I still think they are beautiful.

    Michel....do you have to buy a program to get your name on the bottom of your pictures?

    I found a website but they don't look as nice as yours.
