Very nice!  Quite a long reach indeed--he probably didn't even know you 
were from the same county.
I don't think I would have guessed a  TC was used.

Looks like a Clouded Sulphur.   http://tinyurl.com/27zg83j
  I personally like the Orange variant but the yellow guys are quite 
nice too.

I recall chasing one for an hour or so until it landed on the 
Gaillardia a while back..
It was difficult not to disturb him with the 90mm Viv S1 on an OM-2.

I see there was a new sigi 150 macro with IS announced at 
Photokina--had it been a 180 I would be tempted
to get it for critter chasing.  Thanks for posting and reposting.
