Here are some other photographies about butterfly.
After the Macroglossum stellatarum ( Hummingbird Hawk-moth in english, Moro Sphinx in french), let me introduce you to the Aglais Urticae, also called "la petite tortue" in french, Small Tortoiseshell in english, Kleine Fuchs in german, vanessa delle ortiche in italian, Rusałka pokrzywnik in polish.

Stunning result from an 500mm lens!

Thank you very much Attila.

This mirror lens is quite handy and I like its weight.
Focusing has to be very fluid, and it is.

This is the 55B model : http://www.adaptall-2.org/lenses/55B.html

I also thank you a lot, Attila, for what you do to maintain adaptall.org alive. Smile

Bon Olivier, I never thought that I'd see butterflys photographed with a 500mm. Very Happy
I wonder what was first, the butterfly's name or the name Aglaia.

Olivier you will make this lens price sky rocket. Very Happy ....But it deserves to be recognized for its quality.I love the patterns on the butterflies wings that match the lavender #7....excellent shooting.
We have rain ,rain,rain...I have a few months before I can take my Tamron out.

Thank you Moïra. Smile
I like this lens very much and feel at ease with it and the 5D MkII.
Else, are you serious about no outside photographies for a few months ? Crying or Very sad
If you wish, I'll post you some sunshine and flowers to avoid you go into depression.

Nice captures. I can't believe missed out on this lens for 500 yen. I've been kicking myself ever since.

I am hoping for some fine days with no rain, but at the moment it is all wind and rain ...I would love to see more of your fine weather and different subjects with this lens.
