The eye spots on the under side of the wings are beautiful. I have one somewhere taken with a 5 megapixel P&S in Costa Rica. It's quite severely pixelated because I cropped it. I'll see if I can locate it on my other computer.I know the one you speak of.

Equipment helps for sure, but as LordV has shown with a little ingenuity and practice great results can be achieved with a small cash outlay.
