Butterflies with the Z6 II

[photolizard]

I didn't buy this camera for this purpose. But, I am having fun experimenting with everything from butterflies to landscapes and even birds.

Thanks, Terri. With the weather we've been having, COVID restrictions, and time of year it was tough to wrangle in a place to go.

Well done, Aaron. Sigma 150 ?

Thanks, Jim. Yes, these particular shots were all with the Sigma 150mm OS version. A couple in the other set were with the 300mm f/4 AF-S - used to be my butterfly lens.

Wonderful variety, Aaron. Do you find all these in your vicinity or is there a "butterfly house" nearby?

Thanks, Karen. These are from the butterfly house in St. Louis which is part of the Missouri Botanical Gardens group of properties.

Wonderful. I hope to someday soon make a trip to St. Louis. I'll add this destination to my list!

Let me know before you head this way. I can share some must-see/do activities. I worked at the St. Louis Zoo during the 1990s before moving to Chicago to supervise. My family and I have been living about 50 miles south of St. Louis for the past 15+ years. There is a lot to do in the area depending on the time of year.

Beautiful work Aaron.

Thanks, Louie.
