2011/4/28 Jeffery Johnson jefferytjohn...@bellsouth.net: Very nice one there In some what the same vain I have been keeping my eyes open for butterflies but they rarely if ever land where I am located and have you ever tried chasing after a butterfly. Many times, Jeffrey. :-) This time I observed them around a field of flowers and just sat down. Seemed to work a lot better, as they eventually made it round to my side of the patch. Didn't have to wait too long either. First one came after somewhere between five and ten minutes.

Re: PESO - More macro
Thanks everyone for commenting. I agree the background is not good for this subject. Just a few more days with good weather now, and we'll have some sprouting green strands in the background. The early spring palette tends to be very garish here. :-( Jostein 2011/4/27 AlunFoto alunf...@gmail.com: http://alunfoto.blogspot.com/2011/04/humleflue-bee-fly.html Cheers, Jostein -- http://www.alunfoto.no/galleri/ http://alunfoto.blogspot.com -- http://www.alunfoto.no/galleri/ http://alunfoto.blogspot.com -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
