John - hope you are not hit as hard as they are predicting -- we are 
supposed to suffer a bit from Florence as well - but it isn't clear...

one question -   only 5 gallons of water???

Re: PESO: 8 butterflies & 2 moths

[Subash Jeyan]

i don't have much experience in shooting butterflies and already i
realise it's a problem. none of the butterflies allowed me to come
anywhere near half a metre yesterday and hence the 200mm was useful.
all my butterfly photos are heavily cropped so a high res aps-c camera
will certainly come in useful. my son, who was shooting with a k-s1
(20mp as opposed to the k-x's 12mp) and the 55-300 has got better
results. 

i am planning to experiment with the fa 100/2.8. i also have a sigma
apo 70-300, with a 'macro' which can go down to 1:2 and i am planning
to see how that also goes. i am hoping one out of the two clicks

Re: PESO: 8 butterflies & 2 moths

[Henk Terhell]

This for me is a dilemma when shooting butterflies, whether to use a 
macro lens or a telelens, and APS-C or FF.
Some butterflies allow you to get as close as 1/2 meter. However others 
in the field are easily disturbed if approaching.
With a macro lens as the FA 100/2.8 or Tamron 90/2.8A, a high res APS-C 
camera  may be more suitable for its reach therefore than the K-1.
And the effective resolution of the K-1 with a DA-lens may be about 16 
MP, similar as of the K5, so not gaining anything.

Would be glad to hear experience from others.

no. it has a close-focussing distance of about 1.1 metre. most of the
50-200 shots were taken with the K-x. i plan to use the fa 100/2.8 in
future, mostly with the K-x also.

i just looked up the dark blue tiger and the dappled monarch. while
they appear the same, there are differences in the pattern in the wings
and the structure of the wings itself. the scientifc name of dark blue
iso Tirumala septentrionis, while yours is Tirumala petiverana. the same
genus but different family likewise the american monarch and our
tiger and probably your monarchs too...

More great shots, Subash. Interesting that the same species have 
different common names in SA. Ours are all Monarchs. Your Plain Tiger is 
known as the African Monarch here & the dark blue Tiger as the Dappled 
Monarch (rare).

PESO 2018 - Tate - GDG

[Godfrey DiGiorgi]

Enjoying some time in London with BobW, we took a walk and a ride from North 
Greenwich along the river, under the river, and on the DLR over towards the 
Tate Modern ...

Enjoy!
