I have been trying for weeks to get a good picture of a butterfly and all of them around here are apparently camera shy.
This is a beautiful picture I love all of the detail in it!

Chikrata In reply to RadientEdenOasis [2011-03-30 22:10:01 +0000 UTC]

This took ages to get!
I had to leave the camera set up for ages before one came to the tree
Good luck
Thanks ^^

Great capture, butterfly's can have such good patterns on them but they never stay long enough to get close to get a detailed look.

I really suck at photgraphing butterflies. Somehow they are just too fast for me.
