Butterfly Safari

Andrew Fusek Peters has spent five years travelling around the UK to document and celebrate British butterflies. In Butterfly Safari, he shows butterflies in a new light, capturing close-ups of wing scales and the delicate structure of eggs, eyes and antennae. He has also pioneered never-before-seen flight shots and astonishing aerial sequences. Many of these photos have already appeared in the national papers and magazines.
