I have to ask what kind of camera you are using?

These were taken with a Canon Powershot S2 IS, so nothing particularly special - although it is very forgiving of my numptytude. I have recently bought my first digital SLR, which I used for the Scotland pictures.

I have a Sony Cyber shot (5 megapixals) & I know I can't get pictures that good on it. Hmmm. Must be the picture taker.

Beautiful! These are better photographs than many I've seen in Field Guides. I wonder how much time was spent on each shot?

Beautiful! These are better photographs than many I've seen in Field Guides. I wonder how much time was spent on each shot? I didn't take that much time on most of the shots because the butterflies were moving so fast. The only one I spent a lot of time on was the red and black one. The butterfly itself was static but the autofocus on my camera kept focusing on the grass in the background and it took ages to make the shot. The Canon S2 IS has a 12x optical zoom and a good light sensor, so I was able to take the shots without getting too close to the butterflies and without using flash. Thanks for the sweet feedback.
