Thanks, Ann.
I guess my favorite would have to be 3262, since it's the same kind of
butterfly, but I managed to catch it with its wings spread, just as it
was taking flight. I had a really hard time catching one like that,
since they tend to keep them closed when they're at rest.
And, yes, they were tough today, as it was a pretty warm day here for
October -- mid-80's -- so they were darting around a lot and generally
active.
But, I do like the one you picked, too. It seemed to have the best
detail of all the ones I took.
Thanks again!

Hi all,
Took Mr. Larry's K100Ds out with the Tokina SZ-X 28-200 f/3.5-5.3 for a
couple of hours today -- and, man, do I like that combination! I managed
to finally get some butterfly images this year.

I tell you, that lens is the best $20 I've ever spent. It's not pretty,
and there's no snap whatsoever in the aperture. But, fortunately, it's a
functional A lens, and I just love the images it produces.
Any thoughts, comments and/or critiques are most welcome.
(Thanks again, Larry! I hope I don't "lose" your camera!)
