Bugs! More like butts... I mean butterflies!

Could be The Cruiser?

So, I took a trip to the butterfly farm, the last time I went there, I was equipped with the G9 and the Raynox. This time around, the setup was quite different. I am also quite surprised that some KL people have no idea this place existed.

The Great Orange Tip

There are quite a number of nice butterflies there. But most of them are usually high up or far away. I think I need to look at a longer lens. The above is the Great Orange Tip and below is the Lexias dirtea merguia.

Lexias dirtea merguia

It looks and behaves like the Archduke, another species but while the Archduke has orange antenna, this fella has black. It likes rotting food too :P Let's take a closer look at the fella:

A close-up

What's up for tomorrow? More butterflies of course!

Dude, you need to seriously consider printing your shots and framing them up man :D

Minimum at least A3 size!
