I'm not really looking for critiques on this. I just thought it was a cool shot of a moth in a very unusual pose. This is a Green Cloverworm Moth, Hypena scabra. The view is looking down on the moth as it hung from my moth sheet by 1 leg.

Remember, (Inter)National Moth week is July 23-29!

This is wonderful, Ken

I have my blacklights, my sheet and a support, so I'm ready for (Inter)National Moth Week!

Funny title Ken! And great image...
