Following on from Lisa's terrific butterfly shots in the previous post, my friend Bizhan has contributed his own exceptional butterfly images here. They were taken at Butterfly World in Hertfordshire, as yet unfinished, but once completed, will be the largest butterfly experience on Earth.Bizhan used only his 60mm F/2.8 macro lens and ring-flash, and it is a testament to his vision and ability that he was able to make such a variety of interesting shots with just the one lens.His careful use of the ring-flash has rendered the butterflies sharp and well isolated against the diffused background.

Amazingly, this is a composite of 6 photos at varying focus points to make one complete image with the entire subject in focus. Exceptional work.
