nautifish Posted July 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 (edited) Beautiful butterfly shots! I was also going to ask whether you used a tripod. I have trouble getting the shots crisp but I'm still learning my camera too. Pam Thankyou pam. I do have a tripod but have not yet used it. I guess i am blessed with having a steady hand....lol.....When i finally get around to buying some extra zoom lense attachments i may then start useing my cam with my tripod. Here are a few more shots taken this morning. I was asked to try and take some pictures of dragonf;lies, so i headed down to the grand river and took these. I have to say these insects are not easy to phtograph as they really do not seem to sit for long periods of time and move so fast when in flight. Plus these ones being so small made it even more of a task, But i did manage to snap a few. It was very overcast this morning so the pictures in my oppinion do not look as vibrant. A wild flower shot. A spider resting in my wild flower garden out back taken here at home. & of course a few more butterfly pictures i also took in my garden today. Nauti.

highdrifter Posted July 19, 2007 Report Share Posted July 19, 2007 WOW Nauti. You are nice... to butterflies.. Those shots are so crisp you can count the scales off the wings... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest lundboy Posted July 19, 2007 Report Share Posted July 19, 2007 Wow! Really amazing shots! I've tried butterfly shots before... It's really hard. I never had a problem with film SLRs but the two digitals I've had just don't trigger the shutter quick enough after pushing the button... always seems to be a 1-2 second delay even if I push it half way down first to allow it to pre-focus. Anyways... great results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsn Posted July 19, 2007 Report Share Posted July 19, 2007 (edited) Ok Nauti you inspired me. So I gave it a try. I came across this at the island. And thought ok I'll give it a try and see how it turns out. I decided to get really close up and used manual focus mode. Snapped this pic before it flew off. Then I took this are my bros place. Not bad huh? Usually they don't turn out for me cause of not enough light. But in this cause it turned out good. I was hoping to get a close up shot of a bumble bee but they are too quick!!. dsn Thanks for inspiring us!! Edited July 19, 2007 by dsn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
