Macrophotograph (part of a sequence) of the emergence of the imago of a cabbage white butterfly Pieris brassicae from its pupal chrysalis. The process takes approximately five minutes,during which time the butterfly pumps itself up & bursts through the pupal skin,head first. Once fully emerged it rests while its wings expand & dry out.
