Default Butterflies

My first set of images for a while as my life has been a bit hectic recently.
Anyway these little guys were found in the botanical gardens in Prague Just snapshots i'm afraid and no real PP done on them, apart from the 3rd one.





The leaf was really dull and uninteresting in this one so i though i might as well sidestep the problem and instead of playing around trying to get the leaf looking brighter i mught as well completely desaturate it

Love the wonderful colors on these. Any reason they were all shot at f/4.5? Did you not want a litttle more depth of field?

To be honest i just left the settings at something that worked and was too lazy to change as i really wasn't in a "photographer" frame of mind.

Like i said just snapshots really, but they came out quite well and i'm glad you like them
