The Marbled White Butterfly

[Bevb]

Took these in July when the marbled whites were out and about in the fields and meadows.

Canon 20D - 50mm plus 12mm kenko tube.

Beautiful shots Bev, well done.

Love the wing markings on these.

Excellent work considering the close distance you must be with that 50mm+tube combination.

Better to go from hard to easy so that when you go to the 180mm macro or telephoto+tube it will really be easy for you.

Nice, Bev.
I remember chasing them in my teens with a Zenit-E and 135mm on tubes with dual flash and a tripod. I must have looked nuts running across the field with all that lot !
Did you get any upper wing shots?

[Bevb]

Thanks Scott-Devon, Loupey and PAul.

Loupey i have tried with the telephoto (100-400L) and tubes but find it quite a lump to work with, although the more im using it the better its getting.

PAul, i think i have got some upper wing shots will have to go through files and come back on this one.
