African Joker

This guy was quite a poser. Of the 303 photos I took with my new lens, this guy must have been responsible for at least 50 of them alone ~ KZN, South Africa

Long-horned Swift

Saw this guy on my way home from the train tracks. The skippers, swifts, and darks are always a fun but difficult one to spot, photograph, and then identify ~ KZN, South Africa

Common Hottentot Skipper

Snapped this photo with the new macro lens my wife bought me for my birthday. Its not a true macro lens, more like a zoom/macro hybrid but I had so much fun using it today ~KZN, South Africa

While I'm stuck at work doing admin, my wife gets to galivant around the beach looking at butterflies doing the nasty... so not fair ~ KZN, South Africa

These are hands down some of the most interesting butterflies and if you lose sight of them you may as well walk away as they blend in so well ~ KZN, South Africa
