Butterfly Video and Photos

in #nature6 years ago (edited)

My butterfly exhibit video is now up. It is a short video recorded at the largest traveling butterfly exhibit at the world's largest indoor flower show. I decided to make the video in a dreamy musical style. It is the first video I have uploaded on my new YouTube Channel. These are butterflies from all over the world.

Butterflies: The other pollinators

I put a lot of time into making it. Unfortunately I didn't record it as well I wish I did, but I worked with what I had, and I think it's pretty good. When I recorded the first butterflies waking up after being morphed from caterpillars, I realized I forgot to bring my USB to connect to my laptop to see what I was recording and adjust the camera. The Philadelphia Flower Show does not allow tripod photography, but since I help with the event, I could use it before the show opened to the public. I have hyperthyroidism, so I used a lot of stabilization within Adobe Premiere for a lot of the hand held shots. The show ran from March 2-10, 2019. It was extremely cold outside during the duration of most of the show, so I waited until the second to last day when it warmed up to go back and record the butterflies fully awake. I got to the show a half hour before it started, but a few people who work the event called out sick, so long story short, I ended working the exhibit that day, and I had less time to record inside the butterfly house than it took to boot my laptop, so I just recorded as much as I could anyway. I assume I used default settings on my Canon Rebel T6. I've never recorded without tethering before. The shutter speed could have probably been better, but it is what it is. Anyhow, I hope you enjoy my video and raw, unedited photos. I will absolutely definitely make more SkyRiver Butterflies videos in the future.

Incredible collection and keep up the good work.

Great shots and video I would love ot visit an exhibit like this

Wonderful video my friend; I know we focus a lot on quality content and posts... did I get the pictures centered, did I remember to use the proper tags... but this is one of mother nature's beautiful examples. I don't think sometimes, we remember the importance of butterflies; the bee is usually always taking the spotlight.

From your post, I see you are dealing with a disadvantage (that being hyperthyroidism) but the video combined with quite fitting music was wonderful, in my opinion. I would be curious as to what different kinds of butterflies you were able to film, but again... simply wonderful post on one of my favorite creatures!!

Look forward to seeing more from your #skyriverbutterflies

Increhible ,excelente pots me encanto,es impresionante ver como la naturaleza reúne gran belleza en un par de alas, #butterflies
