White butterflyI got to use someone else's lens and tripod at the weekend so here's my best shot.
And yes C&C welcome Linda
Re: White butterflyLinda,
You have done well. The sharpness in this shot is a lot better than the previous ones. I think you are seeing the difference a tripod can make, especially for available light. Perhaps it is also the lens, which I'm guessing was a Tamron 90mm macro. This shot could be improved (i.e. next time), by getting in a little closer and filling the frame more with the butterfly. Additionally, try to get more perpendicular with wing, i.e. so it is one plane. That way you can keep it all in focus. As you were using a tripod, you could have gone with a shutter speed slower than 1/1250s which means you could have used a smaller aperture than f/3.5. For example, 1/250s would have been sufficient and you could have then gone with f/8 which would have increased the depth of field (more of the picture would be in focus). Keep practicing and experimenting, that's the best way to learn.
Re: White butterflyThanks for the tips ATJ
