Subject: [Leica] IMG: The Leica-R 60mm Macro-Elmarit Lens

When I want to get serious about close-up shots, I get out the Leica-R 
60mm Macro-Elmarit lens.? I got two interesting images with it today.? 
The first is a sharp image of our common Carpenter Bee on a Buddleia bloom.

The second is interesting because the subject, a rather tattered dark 
butterfly, is one I have not seen before.? The orange/red wing tip spots 
indicate that it is probably a Red Spotted Purple. If anyone has a 
different opinion, I would be open to their suggestion.

Ignore the lens information shown in the camera data.? I didn't bother 
to update the manual data input.
