And a Kingfisher! Like the dragonflies as well.
Loved the pictures.
These are fabulous! I especially liked the red admirals and dragonflies. Thanks for a delightful journey to the garden and beyond... Deb
Pete - which lens did you use for the butterfly and dragonfly pics?
ah right all Pics up to and including the Kingfisher were a Tamron 200-500
not ideal for flutters
up to and including the pink flower a Nikon 70-300VR (not sure about the butterfly immediately after)
and the rest a Sigma 150 Macro
giving all my lenses a try out.
The Tamron is not ideal, the focus is too distant. The 70-300 is fine for dragons and flutters but not for smaller insects.
The Sigma is superb for small insects and IF you can get close enough Dragons and flutters.
