I made my annual pilgrimage to the university campus ponds for a fresh stash of lily photos a couple of days ago, but a tiny white butterfly had other plans for me. Flitting and skittering around, he completely stole the show.
This was my first time pairing the 40-150mm lens with the focus bracketing and stacking feature on my Olympus, and I don't think it performed too badly.
I hope this little flutterbug’s elegance makes you smile as much as it did me. đŸŒ¿
Many thanks for every fave and comment, I appreciate them all!

Philoliche longirostris or the Long nosed horsefly is a fly of the Tabanidae family that is found in India and Nepal. It is especially notable by its proboscis, which is "many times longer than its body".
Males and females feed on nectar using the long mouthparts formed by the prementum of the labium. Females, in addition, feed on blood using the mandibular and maxillary structures which are much shorter.
The common pierot butterfly. It is almost entirely black and white, but that does not diminish it's beauty.

Hadn't thought too much about dragonflies so had to google them. What fascinating creatures!
Wiki says Dragonflies first appeared during the Early Jurassic period, evolving from ancient insect relatives known as griffinflies, which lived around 300 million years ago. Their unique adaptations and long evolutionary history have made them some of the most efficient aerial predators today.
Watched a couple of clips and they spend large part of their lives as a nymph which, made me think of the Alien out of the Alien movies. The good part is they eats around 40 mosquito larvae a day!
I'm not going anywhere near asking if you would prefer a dragon the size of a fly (that would be so cool) or a fly the size of a dragon (that would be not cool!)
This is a photo focus bracket of 12 photos and stack on the OM1.

A green jewel bug on a leaf. Some fun facts about jewel bugs -
Jewel bugs are also known as metallic shield bugs.
Jewel bugs are from the ‘Scutelleridae’ family, which are true bugs that have mouths that suck, rather than beetles that have mouths that chomp.
The jewel bug’s diet consists of plant juices.
When jewel bug’s feed, they alter the plant by injecting an enzyme from their saliva into the plant matter, which turns the plant into a liquid state.
Jewel bugs are related to stink bugs, as they can produce a smell when they are irritated.
There are approximately 450 species of jewel bugs around the world.
Jewel bugs can range from 5 mm to 2 cm in length.
Jewel bugs come in a range of colours including metallic or iridescent blue, red, orange, black and green.
