Description
In photographing small subjects like birds, and this Painted Lady butterfly, I am discovering the advantages of using my Olympus 300mm prime lens. I can keep my distance, which bugs as well as birds appreciate, while still bringing my subjects in "close." I shot this on July 21, 2022, in our own yard in Flagstaff, Arizona. The butterfly is perched on one of our flowering plants that have consistently attracted beautiful insects!
I took the photo on my OM-1 camera, ISO 1000 1/320s f/10. During my shooting, the butterfly rotated slowly and tried to avoid bees, eventually spreading its gorgeous wings and flying off.
