Hi again Daniel
The white witch photograph was taken on 15 Feb 2011. I can’t tell you the exact location but we travelled in a riverboat from Manaus in Brazil “for approximately 45 minutes on the Rio Negro to reach Guedes Lake”. (Can’t find it on a map) We took a walk from the waterside not far inland. It was taken mid morning local time and the moth flew away seconds after.
… I’m very pleased you all liked them.
Tracey

We have been reading Chrysalis, the biography on Maria Sybilla Merian, and it has a wonderful account of raising the caterpillar in Surinam that resulted in this marvelous ecological drawing of a White Witch.
