Found a bunch of these guys right next to the highway when I stopped to shoot a rice field. Peachy! Was pretty excited to get a chance to get close. Always amazed how some butterflies are indifferent to a huge big camera lens.

Oooooooooh yes just found some pics from the day before and I forgot about meeting this little cutie. I think it's a "Common Copper" (lycaena phlaeas)

Stopped to shoot some flowers on the drive today but got distracted by the bees. This little fella was loaded down with pollen sacks but still going in for more.

Dialed in my "birds in flight" custom setting for these shots, because the bees never really sit still. F2.8 with 1/2000th sec exposure and auto ISO.

@ewen Great shots. Also, thanks for sharing your settings
