  Thanks @NormandyLiz. Didn't think I'd be able to use it at first - there was so much bright reflection on that leaf. But thankfully a major reduction in 'highlights' left the leaf surface as it should be but didn't affect the butterfly 

  Clay soil - Cheshire/Derbyshire border. 
  
  I play with plants and soil and sometimes it's successful

  My 'butterfly magnet' attracted quite a few peacock butterflies today.
