    That moth is very cool looking. Too bad you couldn't get it away from that mesh in the BG.

    The second one is gorgeous as is the third! I love the colors and detail. The fourth of neat because it is as if you can reach out and touch those fine little hairs on its back. Butterflies are so neat. I need to start shooting more.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
