Default Butterflies

Mrs Kenbo, the kidiots and I took a day trip yesterday to the Butterfly Conservatory in Niagara Falls, Canada. Although I am no professional photographer by any stretch of the imagination, I thought that these photos turned out very nice. As far as photographing butterflies and getting vibrant colour combinations in "wildlife" this place was great. Most of your equipment would probably put mine to shame, but my little Canon point and shoot has served me well and I like it.

They are pretty and you are lucky. I spent an hour and a half this morning trying to get a photo of a dragonfly. It teased me a lot, but would not come close enough. Ah well...another day.

That's awesome. What a great photo. That purple flower almost looks fake the colours are so brilliant. Nice job.

Your butterfly on that purple flower is great.

I've given up on the dragonfly. Now I'm working on the hummingbird that is working on my daylilies.
