Amazonian butterfly

Arrived in the Amazon yesterday. On my early morning walk, this butterfly flirted with me, landing on the concrete path (bad backdrop), flitting away when I moved closer. Finally it landed on a leaf and let me get close. I've been wishing I had a tripod with me so I could get sharper macro shots, but there wouldn't have been any chance to set up a tripod for this one.

Stay tuned for more from the Amazon since I'm here for over 2 weeks.
