Lousey I know, and taken at ten pm. I just wanted to give more info about these facinating creatures. The females have the yellow bands and brown underwings, the males are the ones with pink underwings. The center photo shows the 6-8 inch tongue extended. This is what tomato hornworms turn into and why, when I've had all the tomatoes I can stand, I let them have the plants. Then I get these nocturnal hummingbirds.

This is not all bad, I think it is lacking borders between the pics to help keep the grey from running together with the greens. If you were to do that I think it would help. The colors are beautiful on this moth and flowers. Very informative narration.

Gorgeous creature, but the image is seriously scrambled. A closeup of the moth would have sufficed.

Score should be a lot higher. I like the collage of the moth showing it in different poses.

Cameras are like people--sometimes they lose focus.

To me, it's a wonderful, colourful, and interesting collage. NEVER hesitate, or waste time looking, or hoping for higher scores ...just keep at the photography you enjoy and continue to show us what YOU think scores for you. NEVER stop dreaming!
