Here a background info how i shoot these butterflies.
When i started shooting butterfly. it was not easy. They keep flying away from me. i spent a lot of time trying. I reach a point i hate seeing butterflies. Bec. when i approach they fly away. eventually, i found out not to chase them anymore. Just shoot if they are resting or pollinating. Find an area where their are lots of butterflies. Shot when they come and land near you. Then it's more fun to shoot. :)
