Beautifully Bedraggled
Photo Information
Shaun Wilson has asked me to do a talk at his camera class on Macro Photography 
and I get the feeling he will arrange some surprises to put me under pressure! To get myself ready I've been trawling through a few macro shots and came across this one. I've been told off for shooting pics of butterflies 'from behind', but what the heck I like this one so here goes!
K-5, Sigma 105mm DG EX Macro

Great picture and caption.
Love the colours.
I tried a few times to photograph Butterflies, but they never hold still for me.
Regards, Horst

Lovely photo. Whoever told you off for taking a photo of a butterfly from the rear is not only a very sad person but a complete plonker too! Some advice is best ignored!!
