A portrait of a Thymelicus silvestris skipper from the summer of 2013. I've only managed this image for this particular specimen, it moved too much to take a full body image.

46 natural light exposures at ISO 100 made with Sony NEX-6, reversed Schneider-Kreuznach APO-Componon HM 60/4 lens on Olympus Telescopic Auto Tube 65?116.

Hi, Christian, just a question..
I've seen Your gear list. Impressive. But here's a thing. At most of the time, when these little ones wake up and get active, the wind also raises up. Which leads us to perfect lighting, windy stems, nervous individuals, heavy gearbag and blurry shots, i am not mentioning to shoot the stack of shallow DOFs..
There are about 5 different butterflies around, that will allow me to take them, feed them or move to the setup stand. The rest will be vanished in plain sight, before i'll even intend to approach..

Your experience?

Thanks in advance - Altera.

Thanks a lot all! :)

Hi Alterav - one simple phrase: get up early in the morning! Even before the sunrise! That way you'll get less wind and much more cooperative insects. And be perseverent!!! I usually go home with more than 1000 images on a good day... and guess what... less than 300 are ok! Cool

I know about earlies. There is no problem to pick up a butterfly, even during the day hours, simply having an orange slice as a snack. The problem is the wind. There's no insects in my yard, which means, i need to collect them, bring home, traumatize and then.. then i can use a nice backgrounds, setups, blah blah. Otherwise, i'll have them all same old boring grass stem-hanging..
:(
One out of 300 shots is worth of hassle. The rest - rubbish.

p.s. Thanks! You just confirmed what i thought and have been doing..

You can use a plamp to partially control the wind. :)

I don't take insects at home, almost all of my images are made in the field.

My winds can be controlled only if i build up the shed, around the subject. MrGreen
