I was getting a little itchy and wanted to use my 135mm and HVL42 on some butterflies so I made my way to the Sydney Wildlife World where their exhibition was open for only one more weekend before winter renovations. Unfortunately there weren't may species on show but I still enjoyed the time. Here are a couple of shots which I liked.

Lovely butterflies - I especially like the butterfly in flight shot - very dramatic .

Nice ! I like the lighting and #3 is just perfect.

Here's one I took a few days ago.

Nice work wwind_chan_200, and donwae12.

That 3rd shot is a beaut!!! Always found it nigh on impossible to capture a butterfly in flight... WELL DONE!!

Thanks for the comments guys, I must admit I found it tough to focus on the erratic movements but it's all worth it in the end.

Here's a couple more from the set:

Hi wwind_chan_200,

As was delivered by everyone, my comments won't differ. The butterfly-in-flight shots are mesmerising and impressive!

Donwae12,

That's one good shot as well! I must respect the beautiful photo opportunities with these creatures, since we see very few butterlies here at the moment.

Thanks for sharing,

Yildiz

Very nice shots of butterflies.


And here is one that I took.

I love that lens, but unfortunately it has some strong Longitudinal Chromatic Aberration so it can be a bit annoying

Wonderful job capturing the butterflies though!


BR,

Great shots! I especially like the one flying right at you.

@wwind_chan_200: Very, very nice! The colors on all pictures are outstanding and that gives a more value to them. Continue with the good work.
