One of the most fabulously coloured moths, Ade, and captured here again in marvellous detail and tones.
The lavender makes for a very pretty 'perch' and the green b/g shows off both so effectively.

A fantastic follow up Ade, this one is even more spectacular and colourful than yesterdays and the detail in the eye is awesome. These must be as easy to spot as my mate Gwyn on the golf course, they certainly stand out a mile cos of their shocking pink colour! Grin

I'm looking forward to Tuesday in the Forest of Dean with you and Gary if you can find specimens like this

Have to say Ade,
this must be the most ''attractive'' moth I have seen.
A fine shot,but slightly worrying for me if I fancy a moth !!

As much as I like the extreme macros and appreciate the skill and patience involved for me this is the type of shot I prefer. Classic pose and composition showing natural habitat. Brilliant.

I would rank this up there with the best I have seen Ade, the tail is just out of focus otherwise I would say this is nigh on perfect.

Have another award from me.
