Faceoff of the Butterflies
Faceoff of the Butterflies
What is the last thing you learned?
A few days ago I got to spend some time at one of my favorite places in Dallas, the Butterfly House at the Texas Discovery Gardens. While watching butterflies battle over the same source of food, I realized three things. First, a camera lens fogs up quickly when entering a warm and enclosed conservatory even if the camera was kept in a bag while walking in from the cooler outdoors. Second, butterflies wait for no one so you have to be ready to click fast. Third, as swiftly as the butterflies move, manual focus works much better than relying on the camera’s auto focus.
I wonder what there is to learn today. We will see!
