    Awesome bug photography! What kind of camera do you use, macro filter lenses or just on macro mode?

    Thank you!

    ps.Is it ok to use a pic as my desktoppicture? Thanks!!
    Sure, no problem!

    What type of camera do you have again?
    Nothing special, a Canon Powershot S5.

    macro filter lenses or just on macro mode?
    The S5 comes with a super macro mode which is pretty good, but I did not use it for these pics (the butterflies would never have let me come that close). I took the pics from a distance of maybe one and a half metres and used my 12x optical zoom. If you manage to focus on the butterflies (which can be tricky), you'll get a clear and sharp picture of them.

    I'm going to forward to my mom - she raises and releases butterflies here in Florida.
    Wow!! What a wonderful thing is that?!
