Important


Are you in this picture? If so, you are set to appear on the front cover of the forthcoming album by the avant garde pop group Deus! There will be no speech bubbles or inappropriate text: the image and the butterfly say it all. The small profit made will go towards Purple doings, maybe even a litre of fuel. Deus found the image on this website, which of course has a huge cult following...

Patrick Barkham (standing at back) is a fan of Deus. I'd never heard of them, but am now a great fan... The picture was taken in Fermyn Woods on 5th July 2009.

Thus Apatura iris becomes the first British butterfly to appear on an album cover - another one-up on the large blue and other entomological riff-raff... This butterfly will take over the world...
