A butterfly on a light blue flower


It was not easy to get that little fellow focussed!
It's landing place was swinging in the wind!

Enlarge!

Nature is often elusive. You won the battle, though. Nicely composed!

Lovely! Is that a cornflower?

It looks very similar. Sorry I don't know the name but... I just found it:
Gemeine Skabiose (Scabiosa columbaria). Never heard this name although the flower is very common here.
