Tropical garden - Butterfly sanctuary

Spent an hour in a hothouse environment last sunday.

Got these and a few more when the condensation cleared off my lens.

Dedicated macro TTL flash exposures on all pics. F11, ss 1/200 sec.







Subject isolation by darkness? :scratch

Hi Phil, I like Numbers #2 and #4
Image one is not in focus.

What I like about number #2 is the band pattern in the butterflies eyes,
it's also a very sharp shot, though I would have liked to have seen more space at the bottom of the image.

What I like about number #4 is the leaves look like they have been dipped in crushed ice around the edge.......... nice work Phil

Skippy thanks for responding and thanks for the encouragement.

I am with you on the ranking and on the focus issues.

With bugs I invariably mess up the framing or blow the focus (or both) .....

Its that problem with walking and chewing gum at the same time.

Macro has escalated my shutter count and overloaded the recycle bin on my PC.
