Description
Stamani , orfano del mio 70-300 , sono partito ( a occhi bassi , per non vedere cosa accadeva in aria ) , armato del mio Tamron 90 , in cerca di soggetti adatti . Raggiunto il ponte sul fosso Bara ( dove si trovano le pompe per il controllo dell’irrigazione della zona , ricordo che l’acqua del fosso Bara viene dal Lago di Massaciuccoli ), mi accorgo che nel pendio che scende verso la stradina sterrata che scorre a fianco del fosso ( per circa tre metri ), c’erano molte vespe sui fiori . A quel punto non ci penso due volte e , con attenzione , scendo nell’erba bagnata cominciando a scattare foro ( che vedrete poi ) , fino che vedo muoversi qualcosa di scuro che vedo poi essere questa farfalla che , ad ali chiuse , ha un colore piuttosto scuro . Mi avvicino e , dopo un paio di tentativi riesco a scattare qualche foto , rischiando anche di scivolare giù . Poi mi sono spostato più avanti ( sul piano ) avvistando un’altra interessante farfalla che non mi ha fatto avvicinare , allontanandosi varie volte . Allora , visto che non rincorro mai i miei soggetti ( l’uomo che non deve chiedere mai , come diceva una famosa pubblicità ) , ho pensato di aspettare che sia la farfalla a venire da me , memorizzando i posti dove più facilmente si poserà . Non funziona sempre , ma molto spesso si .
This morning, an orphan of my 70-300, I started (looking down, not to see what was happening in the air), armed with my Tamron 90, looking for suitable subjects. Reached the bridge over the ditch Bara (where are the pumps for irrigation control of the area, remember that the water comes from the ditch Bara Lake Massaciuccoli), I notice that the slope down to the dirt road that runs to side of the ditch (about three meters), there were many wasps on flowers. At that point I do not think twice and carefully, get down on wet grass beginning to take the hole (you'll see later), until I see something dark move I see then that this butterfly, with wings closed, has a color rather dark. I go up and after a few tries I can take some pictures, risking slipping down. Then I moved more forward (on piano) spotting an interesting butterfly that has made me closer, moving away several times. So, since it does not ever run after my subjects (the man who should not ever ask, as she said a famous advertising), I thought of waiting for both the butterfly to come to me, saving the places where it will rest more easily. Does not always work, but very often.
