The migrating yellow butterflies always pass over the spideys and a few will stop. When they do, they invariably light on the underside of the bloom, making photos very difficult to obtain. For this one, I got out the longest lens that I have, an old 200mm Takumar, and waited until I had a view of the insect. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/OldNick/Spidey+with+Butterfly.jpg.html Comments and critiques welcomed.
