    These guys never stop fluttering their wings - probably should have tried a wider aperture and faster SS but I was concerned about DOF on the butterfly and perch as well. C&C appreciated.

    Cool looking beast Alan. Nice flower too- is it a Zinnia ??
    Fits nicely in the crop/composition too.

    Hi John, Thanks - yes I believe that is a Zinnia.

    Very nice indeed good focus, DOF is marginally short but the is mage is so detailed it doesn't really matter.

    I think you found a good compromise. Beautiful butterfly on a good-looking flower. Good BG too.
