Some winged creatures i captured on my camera,..i don't use zoom,..seldom do,..i just like to get up close,..the camera i use isn't an expensive one,..its a Sony DSC-W55 Cyber-Shot. The Video ( photo / image / picture from Philip Nulty's Garden )
Thanks Toni, the big blue Butterfly and the exotic ones were taken in the Butterfly House,..part of Indianapolis,..Indiana Zoo.
I totally didn't see the word Video first time I saw the photo, the purple flower and bee had my whole attention. Great shots of the wildlife, the blue Damselfly is gorgeous. I wondered where you were that the butterflies and damselfly would sit on your arms and leg.
Thanks Toni and Bunkie,..i did think that when Toni replied that she had missed the Video,..now Bunkie as well,..that tells me i need a better system,lol,..let me work on it,..it makes me wonder about the others in "The Garden and Beyond" thread, ,..those Damselfly will land on my hand when in the boat on the lake,..but staying still is the order of the day.
Gosh is there no end to your talents Philip? I love the shots of the bees and hoverflies but I think my favourites (if I really have to pick) would be those beautiful photographs of the blue damselflies. :-D I edited my post to say that I also thought the music was absolutely perfect for your video.
Great photos Philip, Flight if the bumble bee works. I look forward to each of your posts. Thank you, Jerry
Very nice indeed! I too almost missed the video link. Great shots. I can never get the little critters to pose for me like that.
Thanks for the compliments folks!, really its just luck with the pictures,..i am always with camera in hand so that makes it easy,..and then pointing the camera after i sneak up on something,..then click!. Toni,..very clever!,..i mean the word, "Bee-utiful", . Eileen,..i have to admit i too fancy the Damselflies,..and i am pleased you thought the music was was correct for that. Jerry,.."Flight Of The Bumblebee",..you know your music!. Cherylad,..those critters know a soft touch,..i am likewise with Bee's and Wasps,..but you can not move to take a shot,..or its "ouch!".
