    Default Large skipper (Ochlodes sylvanus)

    Taken early morning but not much dew to be seen! The small skipper should be out soon but I have to confess I do not find it easy to differentiate, despite annotation they are similar in size generally the large has more pronounced darker areas.

    Wonderful subject sharpness, soft light, and striking colors set against a clean background really makes this one pop!

    Very Nice. Looks like the orange skippers we have over here. The yellow,orange and green compliment each other quite well.

    Beautiful Shot. I think Noise Reduction could be added to the Background.

    I also which to have subject off frame a tiny bit. I like how you captured the moment.

    Thanks for sharing
