Here are a couple shots taken at the yearly International Butterflly Show in Cincinnati. #1 was cropped to eliminate some distracting flowers. The shots are straight from the camera. I couldn't believe the saturation.

These are beautiful. Looks like the light, whatever the source, was just right.

Thanks. It's all natural light from skylights in the ceiling. I used my flash for fill, but didn't need it on most of the shots.

Good work. The simple composition of the second photograph catches my eye.

Great colors in both. Butterflies are one of my favorite subjects to photograph.

These are absolutely breathtaking. Butterflies are some of my favorite subjects to photograph. Could you give me some information about this show? I'm not that far from Cincinnati.

Very nice, indeed. Love the first image. It's not often that tha Blue Morpho leaves its wings open long enough for a shot. Well done.

cheers,
