Sitter on the Roof

in #photography9 years ago (edited)

Also enjoying the sun the last few days was this red admiral (Vanessa atalanta), atalanta in Dutch:


Olympus Stylus 1s, 300mm, ISO100, f8, 1/800s

Mainly shot for the composition, that one. Here are a few older close-ups of this species, for a better look:

And a few photos from the side, because it has a fascinating pattern, or patterns:

Thanks for watching!

What a beautiful butterfly! Those are some great shots of it. I almost never get good pictures of them; They're too fast! I really enjoyed these.

Glad you like them!

One of the tricks is to catch them sunbathing or eating, they will stay in one place longer then.

Wow ... Cool you picture @ocrdu

I will have to take my camera up on the roof tomorrow and see what I can find :-)

Be careful!

So beautiful! What kind of butterfly was this?

Butterflies amaze me with the variations of markings and colors. Thanks for capturing these guys.
