Royalty Free Photographs of Butterflies

Over the last few years I have had considerable help from a number of photographers in creating websites when I did not have suitable photos to use. equally I have used lots of photos here on my squidoo lenses that have been placed on the public domain.

Although I am nowhere near being a professional photographer, I have taken quite a number of photos and on this lens I supply a number of them royalty free to anyone that wishes to use them for illustrative purposes on the internet.

This lens provides royalty free photographs of butterflies for use on squidoo lenses, blogs, websites etc.

A Few Terms of Use 

1. Every butterfly photograph on this lens was taken by myself and I give anyone permission to use them on websites, blogs, squidoo lenses, hubpages and any other online media.

2. Please do not reprint these butterfly photos on products/merchandise intended for sale.

3. Please do not use these butterfly photos for printed material without contacting me first. Just ask, I am almost certain to say yes, particularly for use by teachers and students.

4. Please do not offer these royalty free butterfly images for reuse elsewhere.

Thanks

Is There a Catch? 

Well, I wouldn't call it a catch, just a caveat really.

Anyone is free to use any of these butterfly photographs on their website, blog or Squidoo lens but please credit the photo to me and create a link back to me.

Butterflies from Thailand

These butterfly photos were all taken at Khao Soi Dao Wildlife Sanctuary, Thailand.


Just click on the thumbnails for the full size images.

Thumbnail Photo Galleries 

All the photos here are thumbnail versions, just click on them for larger images. I used thumbnail galleries because I thought it would take too long to upload them all here (I already had them uploaded on another website) and I thought it would make this lens too long and unwieldy.

This way I can display all the photographs in a concise fashion.

Those who want to know how to create thumbnail galleries like these should take a look at the following lens.

Nikon Coolpix 7600 

All the photographs here were taken with a simple, compact digital camera; the Nikon Coolpix 7600. I am not a very good photographer really but this camera is easy to use and gives some satisfying results. There are a whole range of features and I usually take a number of shots using variuos settings to see which gives the best results. All the photos here were taken on Macro setting and I experimented with various light settings, although most are taken without flash.

Butterfly Conservation 

If you are a UK based butterfly lover you should really think about joining butterfly conservation. This is a really fantastic charity which does a lot to conserve and re-establish butterfly populations throughout the United Kingdom. Not only does butterfly conservation own reserves, it works in partnership with other conservation bodies, the government and private landowners to ensure the success of butterfly colonies.

Butterfly conservation sends its members a very interesting magazine (I always read mine) which talks about success stories, where conservation measures are needed and gives details on various species.

This is a charity well worth supporting if you are a butterfly fan.

Check out the Butterfly Conservation Initiative if you are a North American butterly lover.
