THERE ARE AN estimated 1,200 species of butterflies in Malaysia, including Sabah and Sarawak on Borneo island. Of this number, I believe I have photographed just over 200 of the more commonly encountered species.
 Photographing butterflies is a hobby that I took up many, many years ago. My movements are now somewhat restricted by my health condition but I still indulge in nature photography whenever "easy opportunities" present themselves.
 In this website, I present a small selection of my butterfly photos. Please see Pages 2 for the rest of the selection. If you want to see more butterfly photos, point your browser to Chin's Butterfly Gallery. Click on a thumbnail image below for the name of the species. This will open a new window with a larger picture of the butterfly you want to see. You can go on to the next picture inside that new window. Close that window to return to the main page.
