Sharing A Few Butterflies Part VII

[mtunlinn]

Nice shot of the psyche! Chased it around for a while before it finally settled down for you to photograph?

It was flying around the same area. So i just sit down there and waiting for it to stop for me.:bsmilie: A bit unlucky that it was under the shade and the BG is not so nice.

Beautiful capture, Sunny.

Have you changed your post processing technique? Your recent shots are extra sharp. :bsmilie:

Nice captures there. Seems like you're enjoying your new camera quite a bit.

I notice that many butt shooters (including owners of APS-C cameras) love their Tamron 180 lens (on APS-C, this is equivalent to ~ 270 mm). I've also been told that critters in Singapore are quite nervous and it is therefore desirable to have a long working distance.

However, your shots, taken with the 105 VR lens on FX format, have proven that long working distances are not always a necessity.

I find that rather assuring and comforting. :bsmilie:

Not a bad shot.

My first sighting of a banana skipper.

Thats a nice shot of it I am unable to shoot this skipper as it likes to lurk in shady areas.

 

[cantaresg]

Yah, that was a tough shot. But I was lucky as the sun shone into the shade where this butt was hiding just before I almost gave up.
