How often do you get to see a butterfly stay around long enough for you to capture a good photo of it? I haven't got one...until this trip to the Butterfly World. It is really magical to be surrounded by soooo many butterflies!! They are everywhere and there was even one or two who landed on me a few times!! We got there first thing in the morning right when they opened and we didn't leave until almost 5pm! It was lots of fun that I have the D5000 too because I get to take lots of macro photos. I get to play around with the video function too. The videos are a little blur since it was my first day playing with them and still learning how to focus. I also do not have a video editing software so I can't lighten some of them that is too bright. Hmm...Yong, any recommendation?
Here is one with a 'halu' butterfly that eventually got the other butterfly to fly too...Mei, reminds me of you lah. :P
Besides butterflies, they also have a birds garden. Most of the birds there are pretty small as they are finches and hummingbirds. They are also very active so it was a lot more challenging to capture them. We did spend a lot of time with the Macaws. They have an interesting interaction.
There was also a rose garden and a passion vine but they were not flowering yet. If it was flowering, we would probably be there for a longer time! Having the camera adds on to the fun but it was still amazing to just be there with all the butterflies and birds, to explore their bug museum that has all kinds of creepy looking bugs which you never want to encounter in real life and to just walk around the park.
