I have managed to get a few pictures of butterflies, mostly from around the garden. When there are 2 photos, I have tride to take one with the wings open and one shut. Many though don't do both very often. Butterflies.
I just don't know how you do it Kildale. I either get a shot of a butterfly with closed wings or one with open but rarely get both shots. Mostly I just get photographs of a blur - maybe I need to learn to be more patient.
Lovely! All of them. I am very fond of butterflies, and welcome them to my garden. We haven't got such a huge selection, though. Truth be told, our cabbage whites have been decimated due to the neighbour's kitten who loves to catch and eat them.
Thank goodness for people like you Kildale, so I can enjoy the pics that I'm not patient enough to capture. My niece will love looking at these too. The butterfly I like the most in this grouping the Sara Orange Wing.
Thank you all for the comments, I basically only take nature shots now. When I was shooting for agencies and such I would photograph anything of interest, 100's of horse pics as I used to take stock photos for a horse magazine, Equus. Now its just insects for a magazine and my Nature Site.
