Photographer: Dean Hansen - Eastern Tailed Blue Butterflies
Camera & lens: OM 50/3.5 on my OM4T and a 21mm extension ring.
About the image: Just got a scanner on Thursday (3 days ago),
and this is the first attempt with scanning a negative.
About the subjects:
These are quite small butterflies--each is less than the size of my
pointer fingernail.
I found this pair and tried using an F280, T20, or natural light for about a dozen shots.
The shots with a flash were unsatisfactory. Because I was shooting, changing flashes,
changing f-stops, and chasing this pair from site to site, I didn't record exposure and aperture
for each shot.
This particular shot was with natural light; I believe it was f 5.6 or 8, at 1/60 (it was near sundown).
Shot was hand-held.
