I think the the first one; Painted Lady is one of the best photo’s I’ve ever seen of any genre ever and one of my favorite photos personally as in “what photo would I like hanging on my wall over my desk” to be looking at every five minutes... The purple flowers at the bottom sets off the butterfly magically.
Its an inspiration.
All I have is a 300 4.5 Nikkor non auto focas I got in 2005 bit it will have to do.
Makes we want that 200 macro (I used once) or tele zoom macro.

    Years ago, I purchased an older Leica lens from a former LUG member in 
    Nashville.  It is a 1980 Telyt-R 250/4, a generation earlier than the 
    APO lenses.  Tina's shots yesterday with Ted's great lens prompted me to 
    drag out the 250 and visit the butterflies.  I mounted it on an old Star 
    D tripod and took it out to the Buddleia bush.  Here are my favorites.
