Alpine Butterflies

Below is a small selection of some of the butterflies that may be seen in the Alps during June and July.  Many of these photos appear in my Alpine Butterflies calendar (details on my website).  If you would like to learn how to take photos like these, then why not join me on my Alpine Butterflies and wildflowers photography workshop in Switzerland in late June 2016.
