Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent. Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature. Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread. Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

Butterfly
There were lots of nice butterflies in Borneo. In some places they were everywhere and I was able to get up close with my 60mm macro. Sometimes I got lucky and they didn't fly off. This one I took at Poring Hot Springs.

I dunno, the background's a bit out of focus...
Nothing quite as rewarding as getting a great shot of a difficult subject. Almost makes up for the frustration. Almost. Dopeler Effect: The tendency of stupid ideas to seem smarter when they come at you rapidly.
I recently saw a doco on TV about a nature photographer from Africa, and the way he and his partner worked was to capture the animals,recreate the animals natural environment on a set in their studio in a controllable environmental and lighting situation. Perfect shoots would take minutes to days to create, rather than waiting for dumb luck(ie months !)and sleeping in a hide , freezing,sweating, getting rained on... Alot of these shots end up in National geographic and no-ones the wiser. Really interesting doco. Sorry i cant remember the guys name, but they were saying he was famous all over africa, as a animal handler, guide,interpreter....
That would have been interesting. Hopefully he doesn't make his countrymen cringe like a certain animal handler does for us...

Nice catch Nicole, really detailed... Can even see the little "end bit thingies" on the antennea... Gee, I obviously know a lot about the anatomy of a butterfly when using these technical terms huh...
Cheers, Mudder Aka Andrew
