To Shastik, Ilya U:

Yes, these are "home models", everything is grown and bred with your own hands smile.gif
It was especially difficult to remove the admiral. I had to feed it with a solution of honey so that it would sit where it was needed smile.gif

- Right now, at 3 o'clock in the morning, I was struck by the idea that our abstract, aesthetic, and even more touching-humorous perception of the" facial expressions "of these butterflies is infinitely far from their true "moral" appearance! frown.gif lol.gif

18.10.2008 6:37, gumenuk

Despite the fact that the facial expressions do not coincide with the true moral image of the photographed, I put up another (and last) batch of portraits tongue.gif

Undeservedly forgotten, beautiful theme. And it's still a long way to active gatherings, ambushes, and
photo hunts.
I looked through the archives - and here is a selection of portraits with the general title -
