Default Magic Wings
Magic Wings is a butterfly conservatory in South Deerfield, MA. My fiance and I went there after we applied for our marriage license. We spent about 2 hours there, shooting the butterflies.

They also had some birds

This little guy was behind glass. There were other species is different displays, but the glass was fogged and I couldn't get a decent shot of them.

Very colorful photographs and nicely done. Brave Dad for letting the kids use the camera with no neck strap....either brave, or great insurance!

VERY brave re the DSLR. I don't even hold MY DSLR w/o a neck strap! They must have been beaming with pride. I could image them thinking he trusts me so much, I am growing up... For that reason alone the last one is my favorite. Not to mention the lighting and the story that it tells.
