Steemit Photo Challenge Entry: Butterfly

Not a macro photo in the strictest sense, but I will try to sneak it in anyway:


Olympus Stylus 1s, 300mm, ISO100, f5.6, 1/500s

Bonus photo, not for the Challenge:


Olympus Stylus 1s, 300mm, ISO100, f5.6, 1/500s

The butterfly in both photos is a small copper (Lycaena phlaeas), kleine vuurvlinder in Dutch.

Thanks for watching!

I like your post

Such great shots the beautiful butterfly stands out nicely

I think it's close enough to count as a macro

Wind, rain and hail here today so nice to see these summer images :-")

Very good pics my friend! (;

That butterfly is just sitting there posing for you. lol Amazing and incredibly detailed photo. Simply beautiful.

Great post :)

You must not only approach the dragonflies so closely, but even to the butterflies! I do not get close to them: (

Wow! It certainly chose a lovely spot to pose for you! Simply beautiful!

Two lovely shots. Those are two different small coppers, right. Top one looks more orange. Ocrdu, were can I find out about this steemitphotochallenge?

No, they are the same one. It just looks different from the top and the side.

I think the deadline for this edition has passed, so I don't think my entry of today will be judged.

Thanks. I just checked out steemitphotochallenge.com and saw these two photos you just entered in " long exposure"

They shouldn't be there, they should be in "too late" 8-).

Beautiful photos!
Have to go back to Olympus; there's something I miss ever since I switched to Canon. ;)
