Spent an hour in a hothouse environment last sunday.

Got these and a few more when the condensation cleared off my lens.

Dedicated macro TTL flash exposures on all pics. F11, ss 1/200 sec.

Hi Phil, I like Numbers #2 and #4 :D
Image one is not in focus.

What I like about number #2 is the band pattern in the butterflies eyes,
it's also a very sharp shot, though I would have liked to have seen more space at the bottom of the image.

What I like about number #4 is the leaves look like they have been dipped in crushed ice around the edge.......... nice work Phil :clap

Skippy thanks for responding and thanks for the encouragement. :D

I am with you on the ranking and on the focus issues.

With bugs I invariably mess up the framing or blow the focus (or both:scratch) .....

Its that problem with walking and chewing gum at the same time. :rofl

Macro has escalated my shutter count and overloaded the recycle bin on my PC. :rolleyes :D
