I've always felt that a 90mm lens would work well for butterflies, 
flowers, etc., as well as for portraits.  Moose's KEH transactions 
pushed me over the edge.  I traded in a seldom used Leica lens for a 
late SN Leica Elmarit-R 90mm.  The light was not as nice today as 
yesterday, but here is my first effort with the lens.  In the future, I 
will probably stop down another stop to help with the wing tips.
