Dragonflies and Butterflies ...

fengwei · 23rd August 2006

Haven't shot any macros for quite a while, well, over 6 months I think. Got chance to visit a botanic garden during a business trip to Harbin China last week. Pity I didn't bring along a macro lens, only a cheapy 50-200 slow zoom and a wide zoom lens for the trip.

Here are some dragonfly and butterfly shots I got there by the cheapy 50-200 zoom lens, hope you like them:

Thanks. Yes, the weather was great after several raining days. I was lucky I guess ...

Cheers,

The butt is nice.

nice catch with a 55-200. Good background control and interesting catch. I like the dragonfly with the blue background sky.
