Butterfly Garden C&C

[Tom Wertman]

Stopped on my way home today at our butterfly conservatory. I found myself struggling in two areas. One was the uneven lighting from the dome glass roof and. The other was hand holding my 100mm f/2.8L IS Macro steady even though IS was on. The latter was particularly difficult when I was pointing upward shooting over my head. I guess I need more practice but here are the best of the bunch. Tell me what you think.

Beautiful butterflies! I really like the second one! Very sharp in my book! In the third shot, the leaves are too overexposed but in the second one I really like the lighting on the leaf at the top of the butterfly. If it wasn
