Common Sailers mating

The common sailer is a pretty common butterfly in peninsular India.

However, getting a mating shot of even a common butterfly is pretty rare. I shot this on a butterfly watching trip to the Tamhini forests near Mulshi, near Pune, and had the butterfly expert accompanying me cursing himself for not getting a camera.

Camera : Minolta X300 ( Film )

Lens : Cosina 70 - 300 mm with diopters
