Duke of Burgundy shots

Thought I'd share these, taken on Sunday with my new Sigma 150, a heavy lens which I found challenging to hand hold.

Was pleased to get these on my first ever sighting of this Butterfly.

Great pics. Like top one. Use a tripod if you find the lens hard to hold. You can get better "qaulity" shots that way.

Congratulations Mike on your first sighting of Duke of Burgundy and of the top quality hand held photo's to capture the moment.
