Just to raise the bar a bit higher for the butt-flu "sufferers", here are a couple of shots of butts taken up north from our little red dot.
These were taken last weekend when I was at Endau-Rompin with a few friends. These species are not found here, though the Common Pierrot was recorded about 10 years ago and has probably gone extinct in Singapore. ![]() Taken with the 80-400VR with extension tube, which is not known for tack sharp shots at the 400mm end. Common Pierrot (Castalius rosimon rosimon) ![]() Great Jay (Graphium eurypylus mecisteus) and Green Jay (Graphium arycles arycles) puddling at a muddy forest path ![]() |

Love the 2 Jays beside each other! What a good catch on that one. Both shots have nice blend of colours which contrast yet complement.
Time to clean your CCD SK. Dust spots visible on Common Pierrot shots. |

Just cloned them out first. No more warranty on the D100, so it's gonna be $$$ for cleaning at Shriro. |

Thought Shriro gave up the Nikon business and only does the Hasselblad, Lindt and Ricola business..?

Same group of butts. There are 4 or 5 up north that look quite similar to the Elbowed Pierrot that we have in Singapore. One of us shot a 3rd of the species which, at a glance, looks similar too. You can check it out at the Butt Forum website. |
