Very nice close-up of this beautiful butterfly. Nice sharp detail too.

I also shoot with a Nikon D90, and having been thinking about getting a macro lens.

hi Laura, the Nikkor 105 2.8 VR is a fine lens. The alternative is the recently released Nikkor 85 VR which I also have. The 105 has the edge

Very nice shot. The subject and the eggs are really incredible. The only minor nit: the top of the front wing not perfectly in focus.

Wonderful find. I agree with the other nits already noted, though none are keeping this from being a very nice capture.
