Hey friends.
I've started raising Monarch Butterflies this year and they've given me so many macro opportunities. This is one of my favorites this year so far.
Sometimes a Monarch Caterpillar will choose to stay on their food source and create their Chrysalis there. This is perfect for me as I love to photograph them in a natural looking environment.
Setup
•Canon 5DSR with Canon 100L IS
• Einstein Flash with Umbrella front right
• Einstein Flash with dish back left for little backlight
• Small reflector front left for fill
• 2 - $5 green plants from Walmart for natural background look
Settings
• F3.5 (10 Shots stacked in Zerene Stacker)
• ISO 160
• 1/160
• Edited slightly in PS CC
Thanks for looking!
So beautiful Alberto .. love the pattern. A fascinating way to enjoy nature !!
