Trying to Blend In



Camera: Nikon D200
Lens: Nikon 70 – 300 VR
f/16 at 1/90
ISO 100

If you like nature you don’t have to go very far to see it, at least not in Vancouver. This picture was taken in my front yard. This butterfly arrived one morning and proceeded to spend a lot of time there over the next couple of days.

As a result, I was able to observe its behaviour and predict where it would land. My point of view was not by choice but I like it just the same. I always feel sightings like this are gifts, special moments to remember and feel lucky to have experienced.

I was fully zoomed for this shot and as a result it probably would not have been as sharp without the vibration reduction feature in this lens.
