Butterfly Close Up

When you see a butterfly flutter by they always look so nice, but have you ever looked at them closely.

Here are a couple of macro shots from this morning of a butterfly, not the usual angle I normally get and they have so much going on and actually look quite gruesome.

Photos taken with Nikon D70 + Nikkor 28-100 with x10 adapter

Hope you liked the pics.

Mike.

    Really amazing macros! I can't imagine getting that much detail. I'll stick with pretty, and a bit further away :-)
