Monomad: Butterfly Macro Photography

My local zoo has a butterfly enclosure where you can find these magnificent creatures year round. It gets pretty humid inside this place so its tricky in the winter if you've been shooting outside once you go in here your lenses will fog up and take about 20 minutes to defog. It is well worth the wait though as there are many different species of butterflies many calmly perched all over the enclosure.

The wings of the first butterfly is very peculiar, I had not seen one like that, but it is still beautiful. What a nice collection of butterflies, I love it.

Thanks, its a pretty unique one for sure. I have only seen one like this once.
