Which White

Please can this one be identified? I have so many problems trying to identify whites in their various stages even referring to books they often don't seem to match. Thanks in advance

That's a female Green-veined White - was there another butterfly approaching at the time, as the abdomen position almost suggests she was about to reject the advances of a male...

Absolutely correct Pete, a number of whites all in flight in the same area at the time this was taken, thanks for the ID
