It’s been a great weekend, weather wise, and down on the farm the butterfiles have been out in force. The Painted Lady and Whites were more ‘flitty’ and took a good while to gain anything decent from. That’s not always the case but today they were not for staying on any food plant for more than a second or two.









Hi Trevor
There’s actually a mix of lenses here Trevor. Image 9 is a Comma butterfly and was actually taken with the 300mm lens, with no additional attachments – a bit like bird photography with regard to the distance I was away from the butterfly. The rest are taken with either an AF-Micro Nikkor 105mm 1:2.8 or on the Canon G10 set to Macro. No’s 5,7,8,10 were all taken with the Canon and the rest with the Nikon.
Looking forward to catching up at Flat Holm.

Hi Tim
Once again nature in all it’s glory, I do find also that moths are great subjects and many more of them, did you use a macro lens?.
