Butterfly Photography

I went to a Butterfly Farm recently and tried to take photos of the moths and butterflies. Had to wait at least 10 minutes for the condensation to clear on the camera. I used a Macro lens with a tripod where I could. The buttflies were on the move most of the time but occasionally I was able to compose. The greatest difficulty was lack of light and backgrounds were not always good.

This is one of the photos I took on a recent workshop in London. To see others please go to my Flickr site and click on the London Workshop Set.

Flickr is a way of displaying images I have taken on photography workshopsl on holiday, at events and general snaps. I have published various sets within Flickr for family and friends to view. Please feel free to go to my other websites for more images.
