The butterfly is a colorful ornamental insect, which is very common in real life. The wings of butterflies have very beautiful patterns, which appear in flowers and bring a beautiful artistic conception.

Butterflies, known as "flying flowers", are very beautiful insects.

It is precise because of the beauty of the butterfly that numerous photographers have been attracted to take pictures of it, making you addicted to its beauty.

How do photographers cherish and capture the gift of nature? Let's have a look.

1. Analyze the butterfly itself.

(1) Understand the characteristics of butterflies.

There are many different kinds of butterflies. Each species has a different life cycle, adult time, and haunting place. Therefore, to catch your favorite butterflies, you must first understand their habits.

You can first find the data of the target butterflies in the Butterfly Guide, and then shoot them at the right place according to their appearance time. The success rate will naturally increase.

(2) The effect of temperature.

Butterflies are thermophilic animals, and their body temperature is affected by the external environment. Its concentration is too high or too low for them to move. Therefore, butterflies can only fly around in a specific temperature range.

(3) Eating is the best time to shoot.

Butterflies are very careful when eating. They are not easily aware of the existence of foreign objects. Therefore, the photographer can wait for the moment when the butterfly eats, and then raise the camera to shoot.

2. Analyze photography skills.

(1) Lens selection.

Because the size of a butterfly is very small, in order to maximize its beauty of a butterfly, it does not omit a detail.

Therefore, we need to use a macro lens or zoom in a macro mode. The lens with a focal length of about 100mm can be more suitable for outdoor shooting.

(2) The color of the lens.

Butterflies are sensitive to colors with high reflectivity. The lighter the color, the higher the reflectivity. Some white shell lenses may stimulate butterflies.

The photographer can cover the white part of the lens with dark or camouflage cloth, and slow down to reduce the chance for the butterfly to detect the photographer's presence.

(3) Pay attention to the angle.

Butterflies live in flowers and plants. The most effective way to deal with clutter is to use a shallow depth of field. So most photos are taken from the front of the butterfly.

Photography follows your heart very much. Of course, there is no certain limit. You can try other angles.

Photography is the magic that turns the moment into eternity.
