Kuwait bans DSLRs

Kuwait bans DSLRs.

So careful if your bridge camera is mistaken for a DSLR when you go on holiday there.

Video of some of Kuwait’s butterflies. Rather a large number of the same species.
(I don't think this video is one of yours Paul - the quality is far too good!)

Any suggestions what the plant is that the Painted Ladies are finding so attractive?

Birding in Kuwait would seem to be more productive although this clip does include a picture of an Eastern green striped White butterfly

It's an easy mistake to make Jack.

Using a video camera like a DSLR and assuming that portrait style format will work. :? :?

It's the steadyness of the footage that impressed me the most. :lol: :lol:

Just in case folks don't visit the original link, the original article was unverified and has been retracted.
