I wasn’t expecting to see such a vibrant orange on the tips of the wings when I received the frame. Nonetheless, it’s so interesting to observe the natural variation in colouration of these beautiful specimens.
I adore this frame, it’s one of my favourites. I get the pleasure of admiring it whenever I wake up and go to sleep, as it’s displayed right beside my bed.
