Hi all,
I have posted a different POV of this butterfly earlier !This is the "Common Pierrot" (Castalius rosimon), which is a small butterfly found in India that belongs to the Lycaenids or Blues family.

For more info visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castalius_rosimon

I used my 190db stand and set up the camera about 6 inches from the ground! and further to reduce shake, I used timer to release the shutter.

Hope you ppl will like it.

Cheers,
Goutham R

Hello Goutham,
I always like to hear when there's is 'stability' involved.
It is worth the effort.
TFS and well done

Hello Goutham,
A good photo, I like the pov. You have captured the details well but the photo is a litte dark. It is hard to get these close to the ground photo's, good work.
regards
Matt.
