@perspectivesimages thankyou! I would have liked to get the other feeler in focus as well, my P setting chooses this for itself... but can't complain with having a willing model for a few minutes

@megstorey we only have 17 types of butterfly in new zealand and most are pretty small and plain looking, I am glad I made her look pretty
@raininmyshoes :) yes insects can be very fluffy amazingly enough @acloserlookpbd @barneyone @tristansmum @roseolivia @trinda @happysnap thanks ladies
@cazink I had to make the most of colour for the last day of Jan before my black and white month...
@yaorenliu she seemed to be so busy laying eggs she didn''t mind the camera, they usually fly away pronto
