Great! Your “blues” butterflies are just great. I think you’ve already mastered shooting at prone position. Well done.

Thanks guys

Abdul...the common mormon was shot during the mid morning and the blue bottle and blue jay were taken around 1330 hrs. As can be seen, the lights tend to be harsh during this time of day. I was hoping that the sun would disappeared behind some clouds before shooting but it was not to be. . No extension was used for the bee shot.

Edsel...dirty camera/lens and wet undies are the price one paid for going prone :bsmilie:

Jason....oops, gotta check out the WB. Wasn't around for a few weeks that's why unable to post and comment.
