Dainty Sulphur

I saw a lot of Dainy Sulphur butterflies in my yard last week so I thought I’d post a shot of one I took last month. Their name is perfect! As I’ve mentioned, I never noticed these tiny guys before I joined my butterfly group.

For this image, I used a Canon 300mm lens. ISO 400, 1/1250 sec at f/4. In case you’re wondering, the reason I used such a fast shutterspeed is because I typically shoot hand held and I can’t hold the camera/lens as still as I used to!

  2. Very beautiful. Isn’t it grand that our equipment can compensate for ..er.. changes in our abilities? I still remember the small but oh-so-helpful tip you gave me about birds in flight and fast shutter speeds.
