I had a play with my macro lens today, I went to Lancaster butterfly house which again is a first so all in all a double first and for my first attempt I'm pretty pleased,

Let me know what you think. (Sorry I don't know the names of the butterflies)

1.



2.



3.



4.



5.



6. Finch.
 
Cracking for a first go......That must have been a pretty small bird ;)

Do you mind me asking what lens and lighting you used?

Cheers.

Thanks,

Was using a Nikon D7000, Nikon 105mm macro lens and an SB-900.
 
beautiful and so good to see them in such detail with no ripped wings especially with macro :)
 
:D
they are all fine...the finch is a bit of a zonk to the eyes after the close ups on the butterflies
a good set
 
A great start - no three for me, I think two is a strong one two, had that have had the same angle as three it would have been my pick.
 
For a first try excellent...........:)
 
The second is a Malachite Butterfly
The third and fifth are both Zebra Butterflies
The fourth is a Monarch Butterfly

I feel like a geek, but I only know as I did some research after visiting a butterfly zoo myself :LOL:

Great captures, with 2 & 3 being my favs!
