Butterflies have started to appear in my garden. I have tried to get shots of them with my normal 105 mm macro lens, but they are to shy, leaving me with a picture of an empty flower. Fitted the Tamron 70-200 mm f/2.8, which can focus at 0.95 m (~3 ft), hoping not to appear as scary as the previous days. Think it worked
2 shots of the Aglais urticae or Small Tortoiseshell - the body is not blurred due to shallow DoF, it's quite furry
