Durham Butterfly
Another image from the butterfly house at the Durham Museum of Life and Science. I don't have a macro lens, and so made do with the Nikkor 50m f/1.4D. This is uncropped, and was able to get fairly close for the likely reason the butterflies are so used to humans.
You'll notice that the blur is much more than you'd expect with just f2.8, but that's because the camera was so close; it exaggerates the DOF.
I'm trying to take my photography to the next level, and this was an experiment using some of the lighting ideas from Welcome to Oz by Vincent Versace.
