tiny glimpseby *nmdelgado

Photography / Animals, Plants & Nature / Invertebrates

The monarch (Danaus plexippus) is a milkweed butterfly (subfamily Danainae). (for more, see [link]).

This is the most interesting photo I took of this beautiful butterfly, and believe me it wasn't easy. Every time I moved a little, she'd take off and not come back for some minutes. Once I spent 15 min, sitting on the ground, waiting by the plant she used to land on. But she only came back after I went to photograph other stuff.

Lesson in patience, people... And I'm not quite happy with these pictures. Let's see if I can improve!

Tirar fotos a bichos tem que se lhe diga!!! Acredita!! Passo horas e horas em jardins à procura daquela foto mais especial!!! Não ficou mal, há umas pequenas aberrações junto do branco mas isso é da lente... não temos dinheiro para série L....

LOL... Sim, eu por acaso ando a reparar bastante nos reflexos magenta/roxo!

Mas como dizes, não há dinheiro para mais! E vê lá que a minha lente não foi propriamente barata!

Gosto, sabes, ainda no domingo estive a fazer algo do género com um pardal e uma escultura em ferro na estação da minha terrinha, mas não saiu nada de jeito... lol, ao contrário desta.

Certo, eu admito que não foi fácil. A questão aqui é que não consegui a foto que queria, simplesmente porque se mexesse mais que uns milímetros a borboleta descolava.

Enfim, é mais a foto possível, que a desejável. Mas admito que até correu bem!

Ask any artist about “emptiness&#x 201D; and they’ll tell you about the constant recurring nightmarish emptiness they must face down almost every day as a part of their vocation: the blank space that they must fill. Whether he’s a painter facing a blank canvas or she’s...
