Re: Lets see your Moths & Butterflies

Just got a 55-200mm today, so took it out for a few trial shots in the evening breeze. This little fellow dive bombed me several times before settling in for a drink.

1/400 @ f6.3, ISO 400, 200mm

I think I'm going to like this lens a lot.

Great photos mate, I have had butterflies briefly visit my yard but they move so fast that I have no time to get even a quick snap of them.

This one was old I think, it had to keep stopping for a rest.

​I am still trying to get a good shot of a Ullysys Butterfly, there are plenty around my place but very hard to get a shot at them.

They are so brief in my backyard that I cannot even ID them accurately lol, or even get a video of them. I think I may need a feeder but one that wont attract the ants.
