Nice work, yep you do not have to have a MACRO lens to do MACRO,
especially things the size of Butterflies.

You've just missed the focus on the second shot (eyes not in focus)

Your Son did a great job, and I hope he continues to enjoy photography.
Would be nice for you too be be able to go out shooting with him

Great Series......... Nice Work ..... Skippy
