Bug Problem

Discovered this butterfly roaming the house Halloween night. Instead of squishing it (I was tempted) I decided to throw a couple lights up and photograph it. As it fluttered about, I lit it from the front with a bare bulb, along with a light (gelled blue) hitting the back wall. Shot of couple of these and then turned off the front light and just shot some silhouettes created by the blue light bouncing back.

Really like this last shot. Reminds me of that storybook feel, where the character discovers some kind of magical thingy, which is emitting a brilliant light, silhouetting them as the light blows by.
