Hi Maryanne,here some tips to shoot butterflies,When you photographing butterflies, be creative and bring your pictures to life. Use different angles. Shoot from the front, sides and back of your subject. Shoot at eye level or try an upward shot using the sky as a background. Catch the butterflies in different poses. Shoot when they are in flight or flapping their wings. Experiment.. Use a slow shutter speed to blur the movement and a fast shutter speed to freeze it. If the opportunity allows, look at your subject and background closely through the view finder/LCD screen before pressing the shutter button. Sometimes just moving your lense a tad bit will make a big difference in how your picture turns out. Watch out for foreground distractions also. For instance, a leaf in front of the subject can end up being a big blur, taking away the butterfly's spotlight....Best time for photographing butterflies is mornings when then sun is up and the air is warm. Butterflies are cold blooded. They cannot produce enough heat through metabolism to maintain a constant body temperature instead they depend on the ambient temperature. Therefore they bask in the sun in the morning and then may do so intermittently throughout the day....Keep shooting,riny

Thanks Riny. This was the last shot of the day -- the last and first are often the best (don't know why).

Thanks Mitra -- I think I'm finally figuring out the balance between shutter speed and f stop when shooting butterflies. It's taken a lot of practice.
