Thanks, Toine!
On at least some of the butterflies, there are a few small, dark red
spots on the topside of the wings, but they're hard to see even under
good lighting. This one was just a more intense shade of black than the
pictures I've seen on the web -- and those pictures were very harshly
lit to reveal the red spots, and thus, looked pretty ugly.

I don't spot any red or purple. Since google is my friend I learned
it's on the bottom. What an amazing butterfly. And a great capture!

Hi all,
OK ... my last PESO for the weekend. This one is a shot from the day after
I bought my K-x, taken on a trek to a nearby wildlife preserve. This
butterfly followed me around all day -- I guess it was attracted to the
color of my shirt, or my shampoo, or my sense of humor -- Idunno. But, I
managed to get several shots of it, this one being the best:

K-x, DAL 50-200mm, f/9, ISO 400, 1/400, Program mode
I desaturated everything except blue and cyan -- and kicked those up a few
notches for dramatic effect.
Comments, critiques, and free samples of non-perishable goods are heartily
encouraged.
