I was very pleased when this little one propped long enough for a portrait. Thanks for peeking.

Nice catch, Peter - plenty of detail in those hairs

That's one hairy sucker... not rightly sure of the latin name.

Great capture.

Thanks Mike. The 1.4x TC is great with the 100 WR and K-3, as you lose miniscule detail. BTW, methinks it has been too long since you posted a pic
or 2 sir !!

You know what they say Mike about all work and no play.

Thanks muchly Jer. Butterflies seldom come to the garden, so this was a bonus for me.
