Happy New Year! Let’s start 2022 with something completely different from the images I’ve been posting for the last couple of months.
I spent some time experimenting with new macro gear last week. Here’s a Gray Hairstreak buttterfly (Strymon melinu) I found on one of our lantana bushes. This was lit using a ring flash with worked pretty well here but showed some harsh highilghts when I was closer to the subject. More lighting experimentation is needed!
For the technically inclined...
