mmm Butterfly by bella_ss

mmm Butterfly

So Chel (@Chel) and I went to Boondall Wetlands today to take some photos. Apart from being totally eaten by mozzies we found plenty of interesting things to photograph. I have so much trouble snapping a butterfly, they move too fast for me usually. She looks like she has MMM written on her wings.
This is absolutely perfect! Very pretty butterfly and great capture.

@girlie Thanks Robin, maybe she was worth getting bitten for, I'm just glad they don't have Dengue Fever down here :)

Is this a Common Crow? Nice and sharp shot by the way :)

@bobfoto No, it's a butterfly Jason! Crows are much bigger and all black. Hahaha.

chucklechucklechuckle... the joys of common nomenclature.... How about Euploea core?

@bobfoto Hehe, now you're talkin' over my head! OK, you win!

Sheralee - this is perfect! It was worth the mozzie bites I think. My initials are MMM so I will favourite this little fella as my namesake.

Fantastic detail and clarity - well done. Looks like you have a fetish for macros too :) Did you do any post production work in this? Or is that a rude question?
January 31st, 2011  
Yay! You made it to PP!

Good job, Sheralee! I absolutely love the colours in this photo. Perfect!

You have such great luck with insects! I'm not a fan of most, but butterflies are lovely. This is a great shot! Love the detail in the wings!

@brittgow Not rude at all, it was a Raw file so I added a tiny bit of vibrance, upped the black a touch maybe and sharpen just a tad also ;) That's what I usually do to my Raw files anyway.

@brittgow Forgot to say, I do love macro because I'm so often surprised when you view it on the computer as to what you actually captured.
