Butter fingers

[Fotografer]

Well part of day two of the dragon hunt involved me in a field chasing butterflies - and they really can move when they want to - extra hard in long grass (and thorns, than thistles, and the odd nettle too!)</p>
<p>Again I was experimenting with a greater depth of field for these shots as well:</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>All shots taken with Canon 400D + sigma 150mm macro + 1.4 teleconverter + speedlite 580M2 + softbox</p>

<p>I got his tongue in focus, but his eyes, not enough depth for them as well <img src="http://thephotoforum.com/forum/images/smilies/blueface.gif" border="0" alt="" title="sad" smilieid="108" class="inlineimg" /></p>

<p>end of the day and heading back I was dissapointed that I had just lost track of a beauty of a butterfly - so standing for a moment I looked down -- and there he was! And he even sat still for what was (for a butterfly in the early evening) a long time!</p>
