The Singapore Rhododendron bushes flower and fruit regularly, and when the fruits ripen, they attract many species of butterflies to feed on them and give photographers a better chance at shooting the usually skittish butterflies. These are two examples of butterflies that feed on the sweet fruits of this common bush.

NIKON D50
Shutter Speed: 1/125 second
Aperture: F/3.8
Focal Length: 180 mm
It is still possible to get the butterfly sharp througout with a large apeture if u align them to your camera sensor.
The female of the Common Mormon is on top, as observed, most females do the flying during mating; the males tend to hitch a ride

Speaking of which, you should try getting closer for a face shot if the butterfly allows you to. Shoot the eyes for your personal collection. Read about the whole spectrum of variations in the butterflies' eyes in this blog article.

Neopithecops zalmora zalmora - The Quaker
ISO640 1/100s F/5 Fill-flashed , Handheld.
Actual Size:
Neopithecops zalmora zalmora is a very tiny species and it is usually encountered singly in the dark shaded forest areas. The large black spot on the hindwing is very distinct and contrast with the white base of the undersides of the wings. It has a feeble, fluttering and erratic flight, usually at no more than a metre above the ground .
