4 - Silver Studded Blue on Purple Bell Heather

A Silver Studded Blue butterfly (Plebejus argus) rests on Purple Bell Heather (Erica cinerea) at Buxton Heath, Norfolk, England. During the summer months the heath is bright with pink and purple heather and rich with soft earthy tones of soil and foliage. In this image the butterfly is set against a beautifully diffuse and muted background of Pink Bell Heather in the soft light of early morning.
