OK, I'm no entomologist; I don't know what species these are. But they were taken at Tropical Wings butterfly house, Essex, UK.
The lighting isn't great on these, and the details don't exactly pop out, but It was my first attempt at butterfly photography, and I've caught the bug, if you pardon the pun.

Quite a beautiful series of butterfly shots George. I am glad you have got the bug now, I think you may be infected with it for a long time my friend.
