Butterfly Potrtraits

[alliec]

Managed a short trip to a butterfly farm today which was a nice break, apart from the rather cheeky parrot who kept landing on my rucksack and biting my ears and fingers (have the scars to prove it).

First two shots are focus stacked from 2 and 3 shots respectively. The rest are all single shots at f11.

Not this time, the light was terrible and i didnt have my 430ex with me. Mt24ex wont fit on the front of the Tamron 90mm. Thinking of swapping it out for the 60mm macro.

what fstop was the stacks at?

Both stacks were taken at f11 MJ. And i was at Stratford upon Avon butterfly farm.
