Location
This photo was taken at the large Butterfly enclosure at Melbourne (Australia) zoo where you can be surrounded by butterfliesTime
Taken in the morning when there are less people wandering around. The zoo is a very popular place for families and photographersLighting
I didn't consider lighting options as I had to limited time before the butterfly would moveEquipment
Camera used was Olympus EM Mark 11Inspiration
This lone butterfly on the edge of a leaf exhibiting its wonderful pattern on its wings stayed long enough for me to capture itEditing
Just cropped and sharpened the imageIn my camera bag
When walking around I tend to limit the number of lenses. Invariably though, the lens I want I didn't take with me. But I tend to take my long angle lens when I am at the zoo and possibly my macro for the flowersFeedback
Patience when surrounded by butterflies, they will settle around you and give you the opportunity to capture their beauty
