A trip to the local zoo today and I was debating with myself whether to take my 100L macro lens for the Butterfly house as well as my long lens. I decided not to take the Macro lens and I'm rather pleased I didn't.
First time shooting butterflies with a long lens and I think they came out rather nicely.
All natural light, 1/50th - 1/320th at f/5.6 at 350 - 400mm. I think next time, a smaller aperture would still yield nice bokeh and give me greater DoF on the subject. All depends on how far I have to push the ISO. These were at 100 and 200. I think I'd probably go up to 320 maximum perhaps.
Composition isn't great on this one but I still like it
