Another image from today’s wonderful Monarch Butterfly Shoot. It gave me great pleasure to shoot these lovely butterflies today, 30 July 2011. Taken near Monarto, South Australia. Canon 40D, Canon 70-200 2.8 IS with 2x extender.

I live in the beautiful Adelaide Hills of South Australia which are a constant inspiration to me in my photography. As an observer of nature and the world around around me, I find many subjects here which I try to portray in an artistic and interesting way. Please contact me if there are any of my images you wish to purchase or otherwise use.
