Today's little offering is

yes, you've guessed it - more picspam *g*. Butterfly World again today - but ::taps side of nose:: armed with new macro knowledge. Which makes a difference *g*



A black and white one - and a real poseur. It waited until the picture was taken, every single time, before it disappeared.

And a pretty green one

And a pretty orange and black one

There was loads of other stuff too (including the tarantula, and yes, I held it again with no qualms at all this time) but I reckon I've probably bored you more than enough with photos recently.

Whoa Nelly - have I mentioned how much I adore that first pic? You MUST get that one blown up and hung. It looks as if it would be well hung.

so to speak

to coin a phrase

Heheh, absolutely fab macro work. I adore that first one especially but they're all good -- and worth getting mugged by butterflies, millipedes, spiders and snakes XD

:-D

Those big black and white ones - I swear they *enjoyed* getting their picture taken.

What a fun day out! Of course, the company made it even better :-)

Stunning! Very well done indeed.

Well thank you - coming from you, and bearing in mind what *you* can do with a camera, that's really high praise :-D

I love butterflies. We have a butterfly bush by our patio, and late summer, early fall I love to just sit and watch.

Great pics!

Yep, me too. Loving butterflies I mean. Only problem was the *really* spectacular ones wouldn't stay still long enough to get the little blighters in focus LOL

If you want copies of any of these, feel free to snaffle them :-)

And thanks! :-D

Oooooo! And isn't it just divalicious behavior to see everything in black and white? :D Pretty!!! I love the photos. I also <3 flutterbys. :D

Divas, hell yeah. That's exactly what some of these insects were :-)

Oooh! Very nice. DD would be delighted, too. She's a fan of 'butterfwies'.

I wonder if she'd have liked them so much if she'd been with us. They were flying free and there were *loads* of them, and some of them were *huge*. There were quite a few wee tots who weren't that sure, and a couple that were outright terrified :-(
