It is a sheer delight to look at your butterfly pictures, Peter.
This is the fully-open-wings view of the same species you posted yesterday, I believe.
Grand POV, superb details and lovely colours.
Thanks and take care.

Guten Abend Peter,
die Erebia sind schon eine interessante aber auch 'schwierige' Gruppe von Augenfaltern.
Du zeigst die Flügelzeichnung inklusive des grün schillernden Flügelrands wieder 'zu gut und deutlich'. Somit werde ich auch dieses Bild in den Themenordner schieben dürfen?!
Das Bild zeigt:
- Erebia euryale
Unterschiede zu ligea finden sich vornehmlich auf der Hinterflügelunterseite, zudem ist euryale kleiner und gedrungener. Aber auch die Vorderflügeloberseite verrät die Artzugehörigkeit. Unterschiede zu ligea sind:
- Äußerer Rand der Flügelbindenflecken konvex.
- Flügelbinde mehr in einzelne Flecken unterteilt.
- Ozellen nicht weiß gekernt.
Einen schönen Abend noch, Peter
P.S. Erebia können frustrierend sein - aber auch schön!

Bonjour Peter,
C'est une magnifique photo de moiré frange-pie, qui nous offre tous les détails des couleurs et de la texture des ailes du papillon. L'exposition est parfaite et le fond très agréable. Merci.
Salutations

Hi Peter

Another wonderful butterfly shot from you, my friend!
Have you ever considered making a book about tham? I mean you probably already have have about 80-90% of the total pictures you need and looking at your notes you pretty much all it needs to be known about them, so... :)
Again another shot, from an excellent POV to show us the lovely colors and patterns of tihs charming large ringlet. And, for the even curious ones of us, another shot in the WS, with the other side of the wings...just so we wouldn't have really any nits to pick on :))
Lovely work, my friend!

Bravo and TFS

Hello Peter!
At fist I would like to say that it is a pleasure to watch you pictures with butterfly because of the rarity of presented species. Moreover, very informative notes provided by you allow to learn a lot about these species.

Now a few words about the picture (-s): I like the POV which (thanks to 2 pictures) allow to see both sides of betterfly's wings. This is really very important because allw to see all important morphologocal features of this species. It was also a great idea to show (as a link to earlier picture) the similar species - Erebia ligea.
As always bravo for names in different languages too.
The only thing which for me would be better is a DOF :)
Anyway, I like this presentation very much.
Best greetings,
Radomir

Hello Peter,
What a nice species of Alps. This Erebia euryale is so similar to the Erebia ligea, I had difficulty to find difference, thanks for the second view...
The "+++" : subject, composition, sharpness, colors, exposure, useful complementary note...
The "-" : nothing...
Congratulations my friend and TFS.

Hello Peter,
Nice composition in this diagonal pose. With untrained eyes this butterfly looks exactly the same as your previous pose. Great color contrast and off background gives depth. Congratulations to your collection of this family of butterfly.

Hi Peter.
I have been really mistaken. Thank your note.
I like extremely well detailed and illuminated image of this beauty also as well as the amazing diagonal structure of the picture, wings position of the butterfly and perfect selection of the DOF. A bit soften well detailed BG is very impressive and underlines
the naturalness of pictured scenery. TFS of this wonderful piece of nature.

Tradicional perspectiva y punto de vista para mostrar este espécimen Peter con buena agudeza y foco, gracias al apretado DOF que brinda un buen OOF y el maravilloso contraste de colores entre la mariposa y su entorno.
Como siempre la presencia del workshop de tan buena calidad en este caso como el original.
Mis mejores saludos... Ricardo

Traditional perspective and point of view to show this specimen Peter with good sharpness and focus, due to tight DOF that offers a good OOF and the wonderful contrast of colors between the butterfly and their environment.

Hi, Peter
Just catching up after another absence and working backward through your collection. A lovely image of euryale here, with the downy wings and iridescence preserved very well. These Erebias are very approachable, but separating them is tricky - I find myself studying the field guides quite often with this genus (we don't get much practice in the UK).
Regards, Nigel

Hi Peter
Very good photo of these Erebia with open wings. Now we can see all the details and the identifiction will be easyer.

Great identification atlas to european Erebia species.
I am waiting for more

Hallo Peter,
mit diesem Photo zeigst du uns einen sehr schoenen Gebirgsfalter, wusste gar nicht dass es so schoene Falter in Tyrol gibt. Super hast du den eingefangen, die diagonale Bildgestaltung wirkt hier ganz prima. Die Farben und Schaerfe ist einfach herrlich.
Dein Archiv scheint voll von so tollen Flattermaennern zu sein.
Gruss..Sky

Hello Peter,
This is a brilliant shot of the Large Ringlet.
Very sharp details and lovely dark colours. Looks very fine in this composition. These species must be hard to identify.
TFS and regards, Ulla
