Newborn Monarch Up Close

I continue to be amazed at how much more detail my Canon 7D can pick up compared to my older Canon 40D.  I have two pictures to share that illustrate this.

In the first, this is a newborn Monarch on the Gardenia Bush warming up in the sun.  I took this picture with my Macro Lens.  Look at the detail on the wings.  It’s really the first time that the wings look like they have texture to them.  When viewing the image up close, the wings remind me of a soft, microfiber towel or something.

In this next picture, it was taken with my 100-400mm lens.  It’s the same Monarch, but it flew over to the Orange tree to continue warming up before flying.
