Photographed on Monday, March 25 at Butterfly World in Florida.
Hand-held (no tripods or monopods allowed).
I used a 120 mm Pentax macro lens from the 645 (medium format) system
on a Nikon D750 (full-frame) camera. The crop factor is 1.7, so the field of view
is like that of of a 200 mm lens.
I used my infrared camera for the first time yesterday.
This is a Nikon D3400 with the internal IR blocking filter removed.
I used a Cokin 007 Infrared filter in front of the lens to block most
of the visible light.
Hey- I was there on Sunday afternoon (yesterday)!
Are you the photographer who was towing his gear in a wagon?
(A very intelligent photographer indeed!)
Is a burro the same as a donkey?
What's happening with the background of photo number 4?
1. It looks like you have flipped the image horizontally.
The "Tycho Crater", which is the large crater visible near the bottom of the photo
should be on the right side, not the left side of the image.
2. I would suggest brightening the image. On my laptop (I'm travelling)
it looks too dark.
3. Once you've brightened it, you might also consider slightly increasing the contrast.
4. You've done a good job on the sharpness of the image!
Thank you, everyone, for your kind comments!
When I go to Florida (from Canada) I make a point of being out on the beach ready to photograph the sunrise every morning.

Good capture, Robert. I love crepuscular rays in the scene.
Thanks, "Cameraf4"- I learned a new phrase today- "crepuscular rays".
This was shot on slide film which I then scanned.
Sunrise on the east coast of Florida.
The rain started shortly after this.
