Sunday Morning around the garden

[mpascal]

I decided to stay at home this morning, and get some shots around the garden. I put away the macro lens and used the 55/250 lens. These are some of my favs from it.

A beautiful butterfly.


A semp clinging on to the wire of the staghorn fern hanger.


A Barred anshrek visiting on the minature poui tree.


Another look at the Desert Rose after some rain fell


Hope you enjoy.

Good Morning Michael from South Korea!
What a wonderful set! You must have a beautiful Garden to attract such wonders. Great job on the butterfly, nice perspective on the yellow birds and crystal clear focus on the small crested bird as well.
Thanks for sharing these
Michael.

Now what was it you said;
but now I can see where many of your photo opportunities come from, cause in that garden I see so many subjects and points of interest.

I think you made a better job of your garden visit than I did, an outstanding selection Michael, and the butterfly with gassamer wings is my favourite, well done my friend

beautiful.....you are good at this no matter the lens. The birds shots are wonderful but you accomplished what Mike did in his post and that was to capture light through the wing of the butterfly. Most excellent. I love what comes out of your lens

Michael, I love the light coming through your butterfly's wings. very well done!!! You had a very productive day in your garden. excellent sharpness on the birds and I love fresh drops on flowers. Well done!

WoW all these gorgeous shots from your own backyard. I love the way you have captured the light coming through the butterfly wings. And the bird shots are fantastic with great dof. Even the rain can't dampen your talent with the camera, well done these are all great.

Thank you very much Michael, my garden has a plum tree that is bearing now and attracts many species of birds, The flowers are attracting butterflies and bees galore. I feel lucky to have captured these. Must be the horseshoe. LOL
