I decided today was time for a spontaneous zoo visit. After I met the Man with the Longest Legs and Shortest Torso of All Time in the tram on my way there, that is. There was also an inexplicable beef stew smell all over the place. That may just be my slowly deteriorating state of mind, though.

Spent nearly three hours of my time in Artis’ butterfly greenhouse, relentlessly stalking said winged critters. My macro lens fogged up something crazy when I walked into the fabricated heat. I’m vaguely worried. We’ll see. Still managed to get some good shots before I caved and panicked and curled up on a bench outside and decided it was time to go home.
