Poor bug. Must be worse than a volkswagon passing a semi-truck.

Did you know that if you try to approach a butterfly with a big zoom lens it flies away?

But if you lay on your belly and crawl around the driveway the butterfly doesn't seem to notice, even if you are within four or five feet.

Yes, pretty tight DOF. Too much zoom and not enough ambient light. That or I forgot to change the f-stop again. ":^)

Actually, it is a two-dimensional prison. Like those criminals in the first Superman movie. But I bet Boberfly didn't expect wind in his flatworld!
