    That one of the sulphur butterfies, I think, Dani.

    Maybe an orange sulphur, but it's hard to be sure with sulphurs sometimes.

    Ah Dani, wondered where you ran off too from the Sony forum. Always enjoyed your pics! Don't become a dSLR snob :D you shoot well with that Sony... Ok, maybe I am just jealous because I want tobe a dSLR snob too, but small-sensor cams can take some really darned good marcos IMHO. I am not into very narrow DOF macros, I like a deep DOF like this one. Beautiful! clap.gif

    Bought a Sony R1 and still fightning the larger sensor shallow DOF. Tough to get the hang of when you come from the P&S side of the world.

    Have a good one.
