Taken at the Butterfly exhibit at the Botanical Gardens in Fort Wayne, Indiana today.

Handheld the canon ef70-300 IS USM lens. I did manage to get some decent ones this time around, and instead of driving 3 hours It took an hour. Some might remember that awhile back I went to the largest butterfly exhibit in the nation up in Grand Rapids, Michigan and came back with one decent image. You'll have that at times! Lol!

Thank you for your comments, it's always nice to hear from you either pro of nay. I always like helpful advice.

It looks like you have another winner Tigz. Clarity is perfect and so it the composition. Good post.

I'd be pleased to get just one decent butterfly pic as I never have much luck with them. This capture is exceptionally wonderful & two in one shot. Great colors & detail too. Very well done Sandi.

Stunning shot, Sandi. Nicely presented too. I wish I could get just one shot like this. I think I have a built in butterfly repellent working or something.

Must be some mighty tasty redbuds to capture both of them in the crisp close-up. Butterflies can be tricky since they love to flutter their wings so often. Nice work Sandi!

They are so pretty. All I have to say Sandi, is welcome to my world. Last year we went to a butterfly farm and I didn't much care for any of the shots I took. LOL. Lyn.
