Monarchs, Monarchs, someone say Monarchs? I'll call your one Monarch 
and raise you a thousand.

 From trip to one winter home of the Monarchs in Valle de Bravo, Mexico. 
 OM4T Tam 35-105, Kod 160VC.

We rode on horseback 10 miles, hiked a mile or two and they gave us 15 
minutes tops.
Ironically it is easier to get a nice portrait in the backyard in the 
right light when a few are around vs thousands all over the place.
Have learned from Dean that oblique light will bring out the texture of 
the wings.
I am not sure why the FB poster wanted Santa to bring him a shorter FL 
macro lens
if chasing critters is one major object.  Notice Moose used quite a 
long FL which provides
better working distance and background control and had very nice shots.

Mucho Monarch Mike
