Know book on getting the wings wet, some one told me about if you caught a butterfly and wet its wings it can't fly. I am not fast enough to caught one, but befor my husband had heart operation , he caught me a butterfly and I wet its wings and you can just put them where ever you want, I took a lot of pictures and waited with the butterfly, till it flyed away.

Hi Barbara. This is one of those situations where the written word unsuccessfully competes with the spoken word. If we were on the phone talking about the subject written above, there wouldn't be any thought given to hurting any animals.

I must say that I'm amazed at the thought of wetting a butterfly. I never ever thought of doing that (as you can guess I'm pretty naive about photograhers "tricks of the trade") . I've always sprinkled salt on a birds tail to keep it in place, but I've never thought of wetting the butterfly. Is there a book or list of such techniques?

Thanks again for your constructive comments. They really mean a lot to me.

You are wellcome Lee, I love it when I run on to butterfly, and yes I am out after them, I like to take a lot of pictures. I wasn't taking about you, I was telling you what I done and I never hurt them, but I did wet there wings so they couldn't fly off till I was through with them, and even then I stayed till there wings was dry and watched them fly off.

Thanks for the comment Barbara but I'm confused regarding your
"but I don't go that much any ways to hurt butterflys".

I'm not quite sure how to take that but I can assure you that no butterflys were hurt or injured during my photo session with them.

These are simply beautiful creatures and I feel lucky to have one stand still long enough to be able to photograph it.
