Photo Field Trip to the Cockrell Butterfly Center at the Houston Museum of Natural Science

It's been a few years since we have done a trip here and since then the center has been remodeled and had several upgrades. Our Share & Learn theme for April it Macro / Closeup and this could be a great place to capture images for this theme.

We plan to rendezvous at the Baptist church parking lot on Friday morning around 9 am and drive down to the center at the Houston Museum of Natural Science. Admission for the Butterfly Center is $15 for general public and $12 for seniors. That price does not include entrance to the main museum exhibits, that is optional but depending on time. We can stop for lunch down the road at Barnaby's before heading home.

A Macro lens is not necessary for this type of shoot. Some of my best butterfly shots were with a telephoto zoom lens, an 18-400mm.

Please remember to RSVP so we know whom to expect on Friday.
