Descripción

This is my fourth trip to attempt a proper photograph of an Apollo at this height (about 15,000ft). Apparently I've failed this time too!

It's a four-day trip: two up and two down.
The butterfly has to constantly fight or avoid the nuisance of the harsh wind and me the photographer! And I'm fighting the irritating wind and the climbing up the mountain chasing the butterfly wherever it lands and only to come down running after it, only to repeat the 'exercise' again (like a mad man!). It's quite exhausting, to say the least
I'll attempt next year again for a dorsal view!
