"Just living is not enough," said the butterfly...
2008.05.27
I`ve spent a day in Mainau - an island in Lake Constance, Germany – with Jamie a couple of weeks ago. Beside flowers, there is a great park landscape with beautiful views on the lake. There is also a greenhouse with tropical climate and thousands of butterflies in it. Due to weekend, there were hundreds of visitors, Jamie was scared of the free flying beauties and he was hiding behind me most of the time while holding on to my trousers…

I just love butterfly's! The butterfly conservatory in Canada was one of my favorite places I have ever been to. Beautiful photos.

I had to laugh reading your story! We visited a butterfly conservatory this winter also and the same thing happened... there were kids who didn't like it AT ALL! Who could have predicted that butterflies would scare them?!?! You got some great shots despite the child attached to leg issue! :-)

Absolutely spectacular and gorgeous macros! From all angles, in all their magical beauty. Butterflies as I've never been able to catch. Bright colors and crisp eyes. Soft, blurry background. #1 & 5 are my favs in this outstanding post. I just wonder how it would have been if as expected, the results would have been better (wich is a little hard to imagine...).

Biztosan szép lehetett! Egy ilyenben én is jártam pár éve a Niagaránál :o) Nekem is nagy kedvenceim a lepkék! Gyönyörüen örökítetted meg öket!

Good set - I love the focus on the head of the insect in #5. If these were hand-held you must have a very steady hand :)

Great macros! I know from experience how hard it is to get great shots like that. You got some very sharp & crisp shots. I love the eyes in #5. Some very pretty butterflies, great shots!

Beautiful pictures! R. Tagore said: The butterfly counts not months but moments, and has time enough.

stunning!! So damn sharp.. I am tempted to say that there is nothing disappointing about these shots, but I know better. I know better beacuse I know what it's like to have an idea in your mind, or a high expectation and not have those met. Still, i think these are captivating.

Last time i tried taking pictures of butterfly i also was disappointed. You always are looking for that perfect shot (as focussed said). but the mostly low lightconditions wont allow you to do the things you want. Gonna try it again this summer, have to go alone, Pauline thinks its to hot in a greenhouse:-) Anyway this set contains some good shots and great to watch, so just keep looking for the perfect one, thats is our drive:-)

Beautiful shots! I love to photograph butterflys, mine are usually dissapointing but yours are wonderful! I understand tho about wanting "that perfect shot". Try, try again, we love it.
