female Adonis Blue, Polyommatus bellargus, f/16 |
This morning I met Mark at Mill Hill at 5:30am to photograph roosting Adonis Blues. Mark quickly found a couple of
females and later a male and they were all given intensive digital treatment. In addition to my 180mm Sigma macro, I initially used a wide angle zoom lens (18-55) to try some ‘close-up wide angle’ shots, both with a Nissin MF18 ringflash.
I found two Lackey moth larvae and a Common Emerald larva
which looked like a small stick attached to a bramble leaf. Some tiny Cocksfoot
Moths flitted around and a Cinnabar moth appeared. The resident cuckoo called.
