The butterflies were just stunning! Walking into the exhibit, you couldn't help but feel a sense of wonder as you stepped into a sea of colour and movement... they were fabulous, huge, stately creatures who seemed utterly unfussed by our intrusion and cameras. When they did settle, long enough to pose, I didn't like to get too close for fear of scaring them away so relied on my lens and am blown away by the depth of detail that it captured. Sorting through the photos was punctuated by all sorts of murmurings and mutterings: "But just look! Look at the detail! How does it do that?" All much to the amusement of the far more technically minded boyf!
On a more prosaic note, we learnt that butterflies both poop and have sense a humour ;o) If you ever get the chance, they are well worth it, the Wisley Butterflies.
