Say Hello To Winter
Winter is just round the corner. A quick visit to our regular hotspot confirmed the fact with lots of dew on the lake bed and all the butterflies, bugs, damselflies, etc being glued to the flowers and twigs until the first light came out to dry them.

Tech Specs : Off camera flash used behind the subject to induce back/rim lighting ( Yes strobism in nature photography :) ) + warmlight torch light + ambient early morning light.

Just rightly done anything else would have been overkill. I wish somebody was shooting 'behind the scenes' for this, it would be great learning.

Thanks Nilanjan & VMR
@VMR - Until sometime i used to have the habbit of shooting my own setup shots using my mobile camera irrespective of Macro or Landscape images. But off late have lost touch of it. :(

Hello winter!! Lovely shot man!! its nice to have clean light and crisp air to breathe again! I guess you start "behind the scene" shots taken as VMR suggested. Its a perfect shot in all ways! and love the tip to tip sharpness

Nice image to start the winter with! Details, colors and contrast are excellent. It's amazing to see the pattern of dews on the wings of these beauties year after year. It's tough for the butterflies to survive over night but nature has it's own ways to mitigate the risk of death! Excellent image.
