Re: Butterflies
i did go to a butterfly farm some years ago.One thing to be aware of if going in with a camera and that is until the camera is up to room temperature the lens tends to mist up. So do leave about half an hour extra time if this happens.They are certainly not the easiest to photograph, so you did well Graham

The butterflies were fairly still enough to get a reasonable shot and was taken in severely subdued lighting with a shutter speed down to 1/15 sec and through a glass window. I have taken a lot of butterfly pics, and they are usually the absolutely worst subjects to take.

Re: Butterflies
I would hazard a guess at two of them. The first is a Blue Morpho butterfly (Morpho menelaus) and the second is another Owl butterfly. I'm afraid I don't know the others. I am not really knowledgeable about butterflies, I just like to take their picture (when you can get them to stay still)
