I went deep into the woods and much to my surprise, I came across a full fledged butterfly orgy. They were so engrossed in their disgusting little party, they didn't even mind me taking pictures. How deplorable! :confused: :lol: :confused:

Looks like they are feeding on water or some minerals on the ground. I like the first shot, but I don't know the relationship to the second. Well done on both.

Sorry if I wasn't clear. The first shot is the "walk in the woods" shot.
Thanks for your comments. :D

I removed the shot in the woods because it seemed to be causing some confusion. :o

I wish I can find butterfly in the woods! All I can get are muddy shoes.
I drove an hour to a place to take pictures only to get error 01 message. Have no idea what is means, does anybody knows?

According to my manual, it says "communications between the camera and the lens is faulty. Clean the lens contacts. (p.9)"

This is from the RebelXT manual.

Nice capture, Joel. Setting the WB on "fluorescent light source" was a good idea.;)

Ooohhh... I felt so dirty after this shot. And it had nothing to do with the long walk through the muddy forest either. ;) :lol:
