brody_philip Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 I took the attached with the new 300mm/f4 Pentax SDM lens that together with a K10 camera that appears to be a prodigeous marvel of resolution. Taken at f/19 and 350th of a second. Notice the tongue.What's shown is only a small detail of a much larger image. Perhaps Douglas Stenke who identfied, I think correctly, a skipper in a recent request can also help me. Phil Brody Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stemked Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 Brody, It would help if you could tell me where you took the photo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stemked Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 "Stenke", eh? New spelling on that one. I think it is the Fiery Skipper, Hylephila phyleus. My best guess anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michaeljlawson Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 Brody, Ignore my "Again" comment. I misread the post and thought J. Harrington was the original poster, who actually was kind enough to show you the link I originally posted for one of their requests. J. Harrington, thanks for passing on the link.
