I have been to a butterfly farm in the weekend. On my own, no kids, no wife and no dog. Just me and my Canon 40D, Canon EF-s 60mm macro lens and my Canon Speedlite 580EX All the time in the world! So...I have some photo's to share. If you have no objections... P.s. this image is best at 3000x2000. Lot's of details are lost by down scaling.

Wow Paul, sounds like you got to experience a slice of heaven all alone :)
I love to go to our butterfly house alone.
Another excellent shot from you and your camera. I love the detail of the eye of this butterfly. I don't think I have ever seen detail like this before of the eye. Excellent lighting also! This one looks very similar to the Monarch butterflies that we see where I live.
Oh, I have no objections to seeing more of your work! :o)
Many thanks for sharing this with me!!

Why do the pictures come out square when the lens is round??

On my monitor, 2000 X 3000 gives me just a view of the tip of the wing! lol I can still see lots of detail at 1142 X 761 and my favorite part is the probocis.
