There are probably lots of other butterfly houses, around the world, you can visit.
This Ryugujo Butterfly Garden just happened to be on my list of things to do on a rainy day.
For sure, the butterflies wouldn't be willing to pose, the way I wanted them to.
The rascals can be a real challenge and that can stress a cameraman out.
Getting good close-up shots is almost impossible.
Sometimes, I zoom in too close.
Compose a shot and be quick or somebody will move and ruin the picture for you.
These critters are pretty skittish when someone points a long lens at them.
There's no telling what they'll do.
Here's a photo of one that decided to get behind Doc Graff's lens.
Knowing what you are about to experience, in advance, is one way to keep the stress down.
What I recommend is a good belly-splitting laugh, before even going into the place.
Oh my gosh, Mike! I was thinking about how beautiful all of the butterflies were and then I got to the last pic! I'm not saying that you're not pretty, but.... Very funny!
