Thanks for the comments :) Lilymac, these were not taken in my garden. My latest series of photos were taken at the California Academy of Sciences in San Francisco. Here's a link:

Doh! Sorry have just noticed your comment on all of your photos - what a muppet am I! Still, great photos. I visited a butterfly farm on Rhodes, Greece a few years ago and did not get one single decent photo LOL!

You know Lilymac I always take more than one (usually several shots) shot of each photo, to increase my chances of getting a decent shot. With digital there's really no reason not to, you can always delete the ones that didn't come out. Just a tip that I thought that you might find useful :) Not that you need any, you take beatiful photos.

Thanks for the lovely compliment, Tastey! I've probably deleted hundreds of terrible photos recently LOL! :-))

The beauty of digital, if you did it with film stock these days it would cost a fortune.
