Animalphotography - Butteflies in our garden

in #animalphotography6 years ago (edited)

Today i was in the garden of my parents and i saw so much butterflies flying around and keep sticking to the violet butterfly tree. So i decided to take my camera and capture some pictures of them. I tried to do some pictures with my 50mm lens but the butterflies where very shy and i nearly never got a sharp and close enough picture of them, so i took the 150-600mm lens and this helped me a lot because i had some meters between me and the objects.

If you dive a little deeper into butterfly photography most of the pictures are made in the morning when the butterflies are still freezed from the cold air in the night. I did all of my pictures during the day wich is much mor difficut because the butterflies try to fly away if you get to close to them, i really need to visit this tree tomorrow morning once again for some other shots. I am very lucky to have this big zoom lens so i don't need to get so close to the butterflies but it should be possible to create some very nice shots with a macro lens just centimeters away from the object. This is my goal for tomorrow morning.

Sieht aus, als ob man dafür ne Menge Geduld braucht :-)

Ja, jetzt zur Mittagszeit schon, die Sonne hat heruntergebrannt und ich hab einige Zeit gewartet, aber auf dem Baum sind so viele Schmetterlinge da tut sich quasi ständig etwas. mit 600mm Brennweite hat man auch einen Abstand wo die meisten noch nicht unbedingt fliehen. ich werde es trotzdem morgen nochmals in der Früh versuchen wenn die noch in der "starre" sind da kann ich dann sicher näher ran und auch mein 50mm sollte dann reichen. Somit hätte ich noch mehr Details und Struktur. Hoffentlich passt das Wetter morgen in der Früh und sie sind da. Mal sehen wie agil die in der Früh sind.
