Nice set of photos, I went to a butterfly farm some time ago and my lens steamed up due the the humidity the place was kept at. Did manage to get a few photos so maybe its an idea you might like to think about to get rarer butterfly shots.

Thanks Ken and DB,there are some stunning moths, but they mostly fly at night. Two moths ive been after for years are Elephant Hawk moth and Huumingbird Hawkmoth, just cant connect with these 2 stunners.
