KillerPix Photography Contest: Butterflies - Entry #1
Walking through Lumpini Park in Bangkok the other afternoon with camera in hand looking for anything that would be of interest to photograph and store in my archive of photos never know when they could be useful for a story or a contest on Steemit like in this occasion with the butterfly contest by run by @killerpix.
I do think and most would agree that butterflies are not a easy insect or animal to photograph. They do say that a butterfly is an insect, which is a type of animal did you know that...anyway i was looking at photographing a flower when i accidentally seen this butterfly almost near the flower which was actually pretty well camouflaged.
So i turned my camera onto the butterfly instead and expecting it to scoot off , but no it did hang around to my surprise for me to snap a few shots of him or her ?? The amazing thing about this butterfly were the camouflaged colors as it blended in well with the greenery , see now most butterflies are pretty well lit up with bright colors but no this one blended in well with the wrinkled leaves and it's wrinkled scaly wings very unusual looking butterfly i thought never seen such a camouflaged butterfly.
Well i got to be honest with you i have never been able to capture a butterfly photo so this is my first photo ever of a butterfly and a camouflaged one to that , he or she must have thought i was camouflaged to that's why it didn't scoot off...haha....so you see you don't need to lug around all that macro photography equipment i did it with a iPhone..and proud of it..lol.
Above photos are the original ones but these below are just for fun i added different camouflaged effects to them pretty cool ....yeah !!
