A very different bug shot. The texture in the wings, and the colors you captured (processed) makes it look like very expensive fabric or curtains. And that contrasted against a very interesting and textured background makes for a winning image.

That's a really cool moth image, Nigel. The crop and color scheme give it a strangely creepy or ominous feeling. Certainly not a "typical" nature study image, and that's what I really admire about so many of your photographs. You present your subjects in such novel and effective ways and seem not just to be *documenting* your subjects as much as *presenting* them. BTW, I love those fringes along the edges of the wings!

Thanks Geno! Not too much processing on this one except a bit of dodging around the edges. The colours are close to natural and the background is the siding on my house!

Thanks Elisabeth. Documentary style nature shots are not so popular on MFT, so I sometimes do try to do something a little different!
