These are some quick and dirty photos I took this weekend at the White River Gardens in Indy. Each year they have hundreds (maybe thousands) of butterflies flying around the enclosed garden area. It’s very cool, and if you have the chance, I highly recommend checking it out. Anyway, if you like any of these, please drop a comment. According to google, this site gets a fair amount of unique visitors each day, but no one ever leaves a comment. Yes, I realize that this last sentence was full of self pity, but I love attention, so there you go. Anywho, these were all taken with my D60, Sigma 70-300mm lens, mostly in aperture priority, though some in manual, and ISO 100, 200, or 400.
Butterfly in the sky, I can fly twice as high….

What was the f stop setting?
Most of these were shot at the maximum aperture of the lens (which I know makes them less sharp, but it’s not a fast lens so I needed it) which is 4 at 70mm and 5.6 at 300mm. Most of these were taken at 300mm.
Seems you might be finding your niche as a nature photographer. I have seen a lot of improvement from when you first started taking pictures. These are all very good.
