All of them are great, but 2, 6 and 8 are amazing.

 

[doenoe]

Thank you

The focus on one is amazing! I assume those are butterfly eggs?

#6 and 7 are great. Is 6 a moth?

 

[Bifurcator]

WOW! All excellent shots! Now these would be neat to see in full 12mp beauty...

Thanks for the share Daan!

#1 is exceptionally cool!

 

[doenoe]

thanks for the comments
Yes, the one in #6 is a moth.........Attacus atlas or Atlas moth to be excact. And in #1 you can see some eggs, think they are from the Caligo eurilochus or Owlbutterfly (dont you just love Wikipedia, i can look all smart here while its all from the net :mrgreen:

wow these are amazing! # 6 is my fav by far.

OMG ... these are incredible

I spent about 24 hours this spring over the course of a few days in the botanical garden for the butterfly exhibit ... I took hundreds of images ... I didn't come anywhere close ...

Wow those are amazing!!!!

Nature is soooo cool.

All are great photos. I can't pick out a favorite. So crisp and sharp I'm in envy. nice job!!

 

[ClarkKent]

Woah, these are great images. Its making me very envious and wanting a macro lens

 

[mmcduffie1]

You know what ... fine ... i'll go buy a macro lense but only because i keep getting taunted with awesome shots like these - nice shots

It is not blurry, so it will never win a competition!



Sorry, referring to Corinna's competition thread

 

[doenoe]

yeah, i really try hard to get a great image like that. The images i make only makes you look once and you know what it is
And when everybody got their Macrolens we need to get a new International TPF meet-up and go to butterfly exhibits and stuff. Should rock
Thanks for the great replies everyone :mrgreen:
