Beautiful colors on this one. The wings looked like copper with the sunlight glinting off of them. Too bad it did not show up s the whole wings in the pictures.

Thanks, seems reasonable on the sunlight. Background was pure luck because I hate to admit it but I do not check out how the background will come out.:oops: The background was from the other side of the river about 50 yards away.
