Another fun day at the Scottsdale Butterfly Wonderland. Some shots with the MP-E65 and the Sigma 150mm macro.

Working on may more... here are a few I've worked.

Thanks for looking.

Thanks.

It's a fun lens... but a challenge to shoot. Rent one and see if you like it... I've shot one in the past... rented this one... knowing I wouldn't shoot it nearly enough to justify the cost.

Thanks again,
Hatch

Excellent captures.

I barely have one decent shot of a butterfly, so I am even more impressed.

Thanks all :) Bas... the secret is to go to a butterfly farm :) No way could I have the shots you see here if I had to locate and chase them down... not to mention... most of them are not native to AZ. :)
