Common Grass Blue  Zizina labradus

Common in what passes for lawn in my yard, they're about fingernail size and a nice test subject, tried out my new EM-1 MkII using the C-AF with tracking feature which will follow the subject around as it moves and also pro-capture which starts taking images when you half press at high frame rate and retains the 14 most recent images once you fully press.  In this case I picked the image with best DOF placement.  Also test out in body stabilisation, this one was 1/60 hand held between 1:2 and 1:1 magnification

Nice image, and it's interesting to read about the Olympus features.

Great sharpness/detail, good choice of adperture for DOF - much more and I fear that the BG blossom might start to detract.
