Told you not to shoot near the river. There were many hungry crocs out there.

Dun think so its Sunny, the lens does not have the Daiso thermal socks and
the cam is not carbon fiber protected.

The way I "mis-use" my camera if it is a Nikon I would be on my 10th!!

1D3 has survived many trips there on the river , so is the D40 !

I think that is girl girl Ellen's Canon 40D and C180..... when she went off to kiss the frog.

Nelson, fantastic photos. I love the Malay Red Harlequin upperside.

The shot beneath that is Coelites epiminthea epiminthea (Straight-Banded Catseye) . I caught a fleeting glimpse of it, but no photo.

Les, thanks for the comments and assistance in IDing the butts. The Coelites epiminthea epiminthea is a compliment from Sunny as he spotted it and graciously provided me an oppoturnity to have a shot at it.

This Jamides specimen could be Jamides virgulatus. Besides the large yellow tornal area in the hindwing stretching into space 5 (and obliterating the postdiscal white striae in spaces 3 and 4 in doing so), the basal striae in the hindwing is more or less lined up as well. Both features are ID keys for J. virgulatus.

Horace, thanks for assisting in IDing the Jamides specimen. I was comparing it with the mysterious Jamides sp. found by Ellen yesterday and they does look very similar. But due to my limited experience in IDing them, I could not be certain that they are the same. Tks.

With all the bees buzzing around the puddling grounds , at times it is well nigh impossible to get a clean shot without them .... the Pendleburys Zebra non stop flapping and love to go into the midst of a puddle also made it that much more difficult to isolate it.

Almost all except one or two of my 50 shots were ruined by the bees. clutter of other BFs and blur wings.....here is one that is relatively clean....work with the power of Photoshop CS5 (Trail Version) latest content aware brush.
