Colours of Nature

I went for my regular weekend photo shoot in the forest and here are some that caught my attention...

Grey on grey - this tiny butterfly is the Malayan Six-ring (sometimes known as Horsfield's Six-ring). It was resting on a pile of dead leaves in the sun and its cryptic undersides blended perfectly with its environment.

Earlier on in the morning in a totally different area...

Frequent rain induced some flowering of grasses which suddenly shoot up in abundance after a period of dry season from May till August.

The glistening hair is not from a hairy arm but the young bamboo shoot fallen from last night's rain and wind...

Spectacular beauty from the velvety insides of a Pointed Ciliate Blue, a tiny butterfly that inhabits the jungle paths...

Nature has its own agenda with the making of beauty - a Long Banded Silverline puddling by a sand bank.

And a caterpillar with unusual appendages...
