grey grey again ... and home ... and walk .. and snap ... and this was about all I could find and then I had to mono it to make it presentable ... starting to realise I dislike PPing intensely ... it would probably feel less like a chore if I knoew more ...


E-P2, Konica AR 50mm f/1.8; 1/10s, f/something, ISO200

Was just coming out of Dobbies Garden Centre today when I spotted this butterfly. He was huge!!! I had my e-pl1 and 20mm lumix lens with me but every time I tried to step closer to take a photograph he'd fly that little bit further away so this is the best shot I could manage before he finally flew out of my reach. I don't know if he's a common butterfly in Edinburgh. I've never seen one like it before. There is a butterfly farm across the road and I wondered if I had come across him as he was making...

This was taken on the way home. It looked cool on the camera, but turned out less exciting on the computer. The B&W seems to give it a little more punch.
