Went for walk this morning with the dog right about sunrise, grabbed the camera backpack full'o'lenses because I was too fuzzy-headed to figure out which particular couple of lenses would be most appropriate (I usually take either a 5MDH or TopLoader). But I figured either the sunrise or wading birds were likely targets, so since the 100-400, 17-40 and 5DII were in the backpack...I had it covered.

So naturally I took photos of a butterfly instead using my 100 macro and flash. It's nicely covered in dew.

Varying apertures (f/4.5 for first, f/14 for next two) and shutter speeds (1/200th for first, 1/125th for next two). ISO 800.
