I've been mostly doing concert photography lately prioritizing my Instagram so come give me a follow on there to see most of my content! Meta does suck but that's where all the bands and booking companies are. I am still doing nature photography so expect to see some of that mixed in!

Two skipper butterflies perched on a cluster of vivid purple and orange flowers, likely a Buddleia. The left butterfly is angled slightly toward the camera, revealing fine details of its hairy body, curled proboscis, and patterned brown wings. The second skipper, more golden in hue, is slightly behind and to the right, creating depth. The background is a dreamy blur of purple and green.
A close-up macro photograph of a vibrant orange skipper butterfly perched on a flowering plant. The butterflyβs wings are partially open, revealing dark spots against the orange. Its proboscis is curled forward as it feeds on small white and lavender flowers clustered in a dome shape. The background is softly blurred in shades of green.

According to Sreekumar et al. 2009, skippers #Hesperiidae exhibit extraordinarily fast visual startle responses. Amongst the best in all animals. πΏπ§ͺ
