So maybe we've not had the best of summers, but it does seem to have been a good one for butterflies. On my recent trip to the Lake District I saw rather more butterflies than birds, which was a bit of a problem because I left my best butterfly lens at home! Taking photos of butterflies with a 400mm lens is definately possible, but it does make getting the right angles more interesting.
It was nice to see tortoisehell's again. It seems a long while since I last encountered one.
And the speckled wood was a new one for me - but there were a lot of them along the banks of Lake Conniston.
Lovely shots even if you left your lense at home ;)
ReplyDeleteThose are great shots.
ReplyDeleteHi Ian,
ReplyDeleteDo you have an abundance of birds too, because here it is not really the case! Well done on these shots, they are great!
So perfect. Many times I get them with damaged wings. Anna :)
