justineenjoyslife at least you could see a shape, an animal, in your picture. The fish is practically camouflaged in my picture.

I think I see the fish
Me too
But it’s not that bad! I’ve taken worse shots
To me, getting the shot with the butterfly itself is impressive.
I lived on the shores of Lake Back Bacon for most of my life, and once I started to try and photograph shoreline birds, I quickly discovered that most of them respond to a camera rising to the ape’s head as a sure way to make them immediately dive. I still don’t know how to get around that one.
You can hardly blame them. At any fair distance, it’s pretty darn tricky to discriminate the end of a camera lens from the end of a rifle scope. And boy, the apes have such a horrible record of ending your life story from a distance with those fire sticks. Why take any chances?
I have the same problem with the local neighborhood birds. But I guess my problem is less pronounced since I use a normal phone for photography
Better than my Ulysses Swallowtail picture

I’d like to take this opportunity to suggest that you tag your observations of this sort with the keyword worst pic, so that fans of bad photos can ‘have a field day’! ![]()
