Butterfly Watching in Subic Bay, Philippine (Oct 2011)

This year, my friend and I went to Subic Bay of Philippine.  There, we joined our friend, Lydia, the local expert in butterfly garden.  While the place was occupied as the naval base, the vegetation remained well preserved.

We spent most of the time in the area near the Zoobic Safari.

Green dragontail (Lamproptera meges) was commonly found in South Asia.  It was found along the roadside near Zoobic Safari.

We were lucky enough to spot a few interesting species.  Horaga lefebvrei was one of my favourite.  It is endemic to Philippine.

I am Arex Li, the owner of butterfly-photo.com.  As an enthusiast in butterfly watching, I have been taking photos of butterflies around the world.  I would like to share my experience in butterfly photography.

Many review sites or “star bloggers” may have given you some informative reviews and have taught you some useful skills.   However, practical butterfly photography in the wild is a different story.  While butterfly is a special topic, butterfly photography in the wild involves some specific skills.  Although we may still be using generic photographic equipment most of the time, we may use them in some different ways.  I am not saying those review sites or “star bloggers” are wrong.  I just want to present some different views based on practical butterfly photography in the wild.
