KL Butterfly Park Redux - New and Improved with Milk Bottle Diffuser!
So I organised a trip to the butterfly park with Shutter Asia as I wanted to test out my refined skills in Macro photography plus my new Raynox DCR-250 closeup filter and my botol susu flash diffuser.
I have to say it was a success! I'm extremely happy with the pictures, probably the first macro set that I really like - I tried to concentrate more on composition and taking attractive pictures rather than just snapping away and taking documentary pics or trying to get as close as possible.
You can see the pics I took last time here:
Macro at the Kuala Lumpur Butterfly Park - Taman Rama-Rama
That was my first Macro outing back in December 2006.
I'll post some pics of the homemade diffuser up now I have a new compact camera - more about that later too
Anyway on to the pics!
My favourite shot of the day - Up close and personal.

My second favourite - Feeding time

Macro Outing to TTDI (Taman Tun Dr Ismail) - Taman Rimba Kiara
Went out with a few guys for bug chasing in Taman Tun! Just behind the temple at Taman Rimba Kiara, sadly there was a downpour the WHOLE night before so the place was soaked and the bugs were pretty scarce.
Half of the group got bored and went somewhere else instead.
But we stuck it out and found some really interesting stuff, namely the largest robber fly I've ever seen, a few decent spiders and 5-6 different varieties of Dragonfly!
