Butterfly

[LaFoto]

My so far best-ever butterfly photo (it would only open its wings for fractions of seconds, and it seems like I took the pic in the very right fraction of a second here --- I have several more of this butterfly, but in all the others we can only see the underside of its wings, not the beautiful colours)

Wow - and you got a bee in there, too... Nice work!

The bees did not have to fight for attention for long ... they got their own thread on here, too, go take a look here .

great shot! You captured the butterfly really well! It's so difficult to get decent butterfly shots and this one really is one of them!

 

[Chiller]

Right on. Nicely capture Corinna.

Thank you so much, the two of you.
It was a lucky moment, I did not even realize I managed to press the shutter in the VERY (shortest of) instance(s) when the butterfly opened its wings.

Have you not seen the bees in_this_thread ? I think the last is even better than the butterfly pic.
