I managed to pull off a very nice fluke shot while out taking a few idle pics of the few decent Sarracenia pitchers yesterday.
This female Cabbage White butterfly (Pieris rapae) was having a good feed at a seed-grown S. leucophylla that had recruited itself into some flytraps Owen of Strange World Carnivores sold me a few years ago. As I hit the shutter, I managed to fluke a nice shot of the butterfly taking to the air:
Zooming in, there's actually a bit going on in that shot...
Not only did I score the butterfly in decent focus, I caught its proboscis midway through being re-coiled, and an ant (probably White-footed house ant, Linepithema humile) traversing the downward-pointing hairs under the pitcher's lid.
I very much prefer my DSLR though...
