I took this one in my backyard. I was kind of down, but when I say this guy my spirits rose. He let me take as many pictures as I wanted. He even let me hold him. It was awsome. Hope you guys like it. Tell me what you think.

Every morning I will rest my arms a while upon the windowsill of heaven, gaze upon God, and with that vision in my heart turn strong to meet my day.

This is about as good a photo of a Luna Moth as I have ever seen. Your title is apt because he looks so much like a hanging leaf. Great work!

What a vivid grren creature. It seems soooo huge against the tree branch and the plants. Wonderful closeup shot. Incredible it was not afraid of you at all. I have never seen such a moth. Thank you for sharing.
