This was my first trip to the new butterfly exhibit with my 105mm macro lens, and I'm pleased with some of the shots I got. We also stopped in the Night World, Aquarium, and Jungle.

Well, I finally got around to it this afternoon. I took a bunch of pictures, and ended up with a sore wrist from holding my heavy 300mm telephoto lens for a half hour. <p>Click through to see my favorite half dozen photos from the session.
