Hairy Butterfly |
Macro Puma |
Dragonfly |
Another late-night visitor. Scale is about 10 cm wingspan.
I can't get the camera to focus properly in point-blank macro shooting... Although I took several dozen photos of this scene, this is one of the best: looks very rough when viewed full-size (I had to turn off the flash, too), and not enough focus depth (the wing edges are slightly more blurred). And that's with a completely still subject.

Big dragonflies are very rare in the gardens here. Perhaps they live in the hills outside, but in the summer the only standing water is indeed in somebody's backyard, so that doesn't seem probable.
When I saw this one I could swear it was some kind of toy, not a living insect... It just has these amazingly bright painted-rubber colors. They don't come across in the hurried flash'd photo.
The finger belongs to my father. We had to hold it under the A/C to keep it from flying off.
