Tattered Wings

Please view here.

 

I wonder why its wings are that way? I guess they get tattered from use? (and probably from little kids innocently trying to catch them)

 

 

I think this is the proper way of capturing butterflies. Keep them parallel to the camera to make sure all parts are in focus. Taken at f/8 so I have more leeway in terms of depth of field. Shutter speed took a big hit though...down to 1/30th of a second. VR helped I guess. Still not as sharp as I wanted. 200mm
