On this image I used a Canon Digital SLR with a Canon 100mm macro and of course a very sturdy tripod. / Photographed in the highlands of Tasmania, Australia. / So much fun!

I’m lucky enough to have a small secret place I visit where these beautiful creatures seem to congregate and or breed. I love visiting and watching them in their thousands as they sneak in and out of small gaps and caverns. An amazing act of nature. Canon 400D Sigma 70-300 macro lens.

As it started to rain, I thought to myself, “if he’s sticking around, then so am I.” As the rain drops started piling up on both of us, I managed to capture this pretty scene before the real deluge / began ! (Windsor, CT.)
NEVER SQUASH A KILLER BEAT!!!
Crazy as it is, there exist butterflies that have transparent wings. I have never seen one before, but they keep a few in the butterfly gardens in Knokke-Heist in Belgium. And there I´ve met my first one. / The butterfly is commonly called the Glasswing and its home is Central America. Photographed with Nikon D200, lens Tamron 90mm, f/2,8 Some suggestions: /

Another image from my Ladybird meeting place near Mt Burr, Limestone Coast, South Australia. Many of you who have visited before would have seen a range of images from this secret little place where these ladybirds congregated in their thousands. Recently I reported they had all been killed by poison spray laid by Local Government. I have been back and they are just starting to regenerate now with only small bunches in their tens surviving but they seem to be making a slow comeback. This image, shot with a Canon 400D – sigma 100 – 300 macro, is an old image I have been wanting to post for some time. Hopefully we will see them back in their glory like this in years to come.
This image was captured in the highlands of Tasmania, using a Canon DSLR and a 100mm Canon macro lens and always a tripod.. / This image has been featured on / red bubble home page Two home page features in one week….so excited. thank you all… White Valley has been featured in the folowing groups / The Woman Photographer Feb 2009 / 1 ARTISTS OF REDBUBBLE Feb 2009 / Butterflies, Skippers, Feb 2009 / Ladybugs Feb 2009 / See my other pic featured on home page this week March 2009 /
