I was wishing I had my Canon with its macro lens when I visited Dunedin's Discovery World Tropical Forest 2 days ago but I think the Panasonic FZ28 did OK :) Interested to know if you think so too. All comments most welcome.I hope someone will identify this butterfly for me.

I can only imagine what the macro shot would look like! Very well done!

You're too much of a perfectionist Eve. This is a grand capture. As for the butterfly ?? Let's just say it's a mighty purdy one. :)

I think it's a Cairn's Wing butterfly, Eve. I have seen them in a local observatory here. This shot is impeccable. The Canon could not have done any better. It is so nice to see a butterfly from the underbelly instead of from that back as is more common. Great shot.

The only thing that would have improved it would be a better background, otherwise a very unique angle on this pretty Butterfly. Well done.

Enjoy nature, Take nothing but photographs and leave nothing but footprints
I think the camera more then held up its end of the bargains Lyn. I might have to check into one of those for a backup. Looks like it really does the job. Of course you were very beneficial to it. :)

I don't think the Canon could have taken a better shot Lyn. This is very,very good indeed. The detail of the body and wings could not be bettered.

I doubt if you can get it any clearer than that with a canon or any other camera. This is crystal clear and a beautiful shot Lyn!

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?

Why do the pictures come out square when the lens is round??
It is a beautiful shot, Eve. Cloning that white post out wouldn't hurt anything, and remove a minor distraction.

Thanks For Sharing ! Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience
I don't know how you could do better than this! Great color and clarity!

I love the angle on this! Usually butterflys are shot from above. I like that this is from the front of the butterfly. Super color and detail. Just voted a 10 on it! Very lovely post.
