Challenge: Insects II (Minimal Editing I*)
Camera: Nikon D70s
Lens: Nikon AF Zoom-Nikkor 28-105mm f/3.5-4.5D
Location: my dining room table
Date: Apr 13, 2007
Galleries: Animals, Macro
Date Uploaded: Apr 14, 2007

 wasn\'t going to do this challenge for lack of pretty bugs around my house. then, this afternoon, i saw this beautiful guy hanging out by my front door. so i scooped him up in a tupperware and stowed him in the fridge while i set up my shot. once he thawed out, though, he wouldn\'t move, so this was the best shot i got.

re-sized, sharpened, uploaded.

Absolutely beasutiful! Loved the colours. So soft. I'd love a copy of this photograph to disply. I do not have a room that it would work in (due to colour scheme) but I would plan a room around this photograph and use it as my starting point.

I really like this one - the subject is beautiful. Pity about the loss of focus towards the bottom.

Love the colours here and the fact that the flower and the moth match (that is such a cool moth too!).

I do wish the wings were completely in view. Beautiful colour palette: soft and powdery.
