EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the magical moment of a Camberwell Beauty, or Mourning Cloak Butterfly (Nymphalis antiopa), as it emerges from its chrysalis during the hatching process. The intricately patterned wings of this exquisite Lepidoptera species are still damp and crumpled, gradually expanding and hardening as the newborn insect takes its first flight. The Camberwell Beauty is one of the largest and most distinctive butterflies found in the UK, with its wingspan reaching up to 9cm. This image by wildlife photographer Brian Bevan invites us to appreciate the beauty and wonder of nature's life cycles, as the metamorphosis from pupa to adult unfolds in a mesmerizing sequence. For those who wish to bring this enchanting moment into their homes, this photograph is available as a print for personal display purposes only.
