This is a huge moth that sleeps a lot :)

Hey Fabs,
Very nice detail on one of my favorite moths! I like the pattern you chose and the lighting is excellent. It finally cooled off here in NJ....so I feel your pain!

[Julie Kenward]

I also feel your pain - hot and muggy - ugh! But this! What a wonderful abstract, Fabs! I think you chose exactly the right composition - nothing looks cut off and there's nothing here that doesn't add to the overall image. Everything is sharp and detailed - super image!

I wonder what this would look like run through Fractalius? ;)

Hey Fabs, cool abstract. B-fly wimgs offer great patterns and colors. Like the details and pattern here.

Great colors and good choice on the comp.

Fabs, wonderful detail and colors in a great moth.
It's good to look at tiny macro details too - amazing beauty there.

Fabs,

This is fabulous. I want to reach out and touch the screen. The pattern here is incredible.
