Common Jezebel enjoying Marigold!
  •  Info Common Jezebel enjoying Marigold! The Common Jezebel (Delias eucharis) is a medium sized pierid butterfly found in many areas of South and Southeast Asia. The butterfly may be found wherever there are trees, even in towns and cities, flies high among the trees and comes lower down only to feed on nectar in flowers. All by me. -- Jkadavoor (Jee) (talk) 19:12, 12 October 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  • I think you mean left. I’m struggling with the limitations of my poor compact. These types of pictures are taken with the help of "extended zoom" facility of my poor camera which is somewhat similar to the use of a TC in SLR. It is easy to compose an image having 10MP in my camera; but the result will very bad, without much details. Instead I tight the frame with help of that feature and compose giving full strain to my eyes. You can imagine how difficult it is to keep the entire subject in frame in such a tight shot. (Sorry for the delayed response; we’ve continuous electricity problems in our place due to the heavy rain and ear blowing thunderbolts. Yes; our place is blessed with northeastern monsoon nowadays.) -- Jkadavoor (Jee) (talk) 09:06, 14 October 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]
