Encontrei essa bela borboleta repousando sobre uma folha que acredito ser de uma bromélia. Estava muito tranquila permitindo assim grande aproximação e com isso favorecendo a utilização da técnica de empilhamento de foco em campo. Algumas fotos finais foram perdidas pois a borboleta resolveu voar e partiu.
Empilhamento de foco feito com 52 fotografias usando luz mista (natural+flash) combinadas posteriormente com o programa Combine ZP.

The Nymphalidae are the largest family of butterflies, with over 6,000 species spread across most of the world. They belong to the superfamily Papilionoidea and are usually medium to large butterflies. Most species have a reduced pair of front legs and many keep their colorful wings flat when resting. They are also called brush-footed butterflies or four-legged butterflies, as they are known to stand on only four legs while the other two are coiled; in some species, these forelimbs have a brush-like set of hairs, which gives this family its other common name. Many species are brightly colored and include popular species such as the emperors, monarch butterflies, admirals, tortoises, and nacres. The underwings, on the other hand, are often dull and in some species look remarkably like dead leaves, or are much paler, creating a cryptic effect that helps the butterflies blend in with their surroundings.
