Look for a 10-15mm extension tube? Just enough to get it focussing that bit
closer...

I captured images of two more passing butterflies using a combination with
which I am beginning to feel more comfortable, the Oly E1 and the Pentax
135/3.5, shot wide open.  Both were shot at very close to the near focus
limit.  Colors are just as they came from the ORF file.
