These are marvelous, Socrate! I'm in awe of your capture skill as I've failed miserably trying to catch them in flight.

WHAT an incredible series! You captured this behavior terrifically, especially at such a low shooting angle. I've never seen anything like these--that's why I love this place.

Exceptional work, Shasoc--VOTED!

Thank you, Kim. You are very kind

I'm with Morris - one is hard enough, and you got two! Super work. I hope the hurricane didn't treat you badly ~ Ron

Thanks Ron. Gordon actually never made to Hurricane strength. Just lots of rain and some wind.

These images just go to show how the talent of the photographer influences the resulting images. There are some that say it could never be done with equipment you used or the brand you used

I'm impressed and delighted to see these, awesome my friend

and my vote is to follow.......

But these are great as well

Glad you Liked these, KD. Thanks for stopping by

Every once in awhile something comes along that amazes me on the forum. I must admit this is one of those times. Great capture.

Outstanding series and one that reflects a lot of skill. While butterflies are not the fastest fliers, that are super erratic and their flight patterns. It is amazing that you were able to track these lep's as they zigged and zagged... fantastic!
