Marbled White Butterfly, Friston Forest by Alan MacKenzie Via Flickr: © 2015 Alan Mackenzie. www.alanmackenziephotography.com Facebook Living on the south coast means windy weather. Windy weather means unsharp butterfly photos. I had to wait until rather late, for the wind to disappear. Even so, I always use sticks and clothes pegs to stabilise plant stems, as even a slight movement can ruin a macro shot. This is a female. I think the females are more attractive than the males, whose wings have less relief and indistinct markings. My journey to Friston Forest featured some interesting sights, including a man walking backwards along the pavement, a gentleman on the bus wearing Doc Martens on the wrong feet and an elderly chap dressed as a duck, playing the keyboard in the middle of a field. -- source link
