Butterfly collection

[log1t3ch]

This is a Lemon Emigrant. Many forms for this species.

Your butterflies shots are getting better but I find that there are rooms for improvement especially the exposures.

Keep it up and hope to see more from you.

thanks! do u all find it under exposed? maybe my lcd brightness is too bright =X because it looks alright on my screen

Its a tad under exposed, but can be easily fixed by increasing the levels.
You may also wish to increase the contrast a little to give your image more punch.

will take note of that.

Nice collection of forest butts. :cheers:

The first one is a Malay Viscount (Tanaecia pelea pelea).

Good shot of the female Saturn. Not easy to shoot this skittish forest butt unless it's feeding like that.

Very nice collection. Haven't had much luck seeing butterflies. I'd just starting out with macro also, I feel some of the pictures could have been sharper.
My personal favorite in this series so far:

Ypthima baldus newboldi (Common Five Ring)

Happy shooting.
