The day before Christmas we were hiking in Porongorup National Park and came across lots of orange and brownish butterflies. I finally managed to get one sitting still, but it wouldn't open it's wings for us, a pity, as they were beautiful.
Over the Christmas weekend we were hiking in the Stirling Ranges and on top of the Toolbrunup mountain were lots of flies and I made a few good shots of this beauty. It's only slightly bigger then a normal fly.
Nothing can compare to the original shapes of flora and fauna. Life is beautiful and while wandering around I regularly have a lucky find of some real pretty things. I used to take them home but nowadays I take my digital camera with me and leave them in place. They are my inspiration!
