Finally got my record shot of this species. Found it on the underside of a leaf under shady canopy condition. This shot was taken at ISO1600, f/4.5, 1/25s, handheld. A tripod would have been a big help as the butt was very tame.

That's more than a record shot. Well taken given the difficult lighting condition in the shade. Wouldn't have been able to nail such a shot if not for the ISO1600. ;P
Thanks, Khew. It was like a replay of the scene when we shot the Yellow Chequerd Lancer a week ago, as the location of this Awl is only one or two feet away from the Lancer spot, but without your presence and your tripod :).Quote:

Hope your sharp eyes can spot the leaf shelter of this species one of these days.
Horace, nice shot. Wah, you can handhold a T180 at 1/25. :thumbsup:
Thanks, Federick. FYI the posted pic was the only keeper out of 30 odd shots taken.Quote:
