Oleander Hawkmoth; one of the largest moths in Europe and, in my opinion, the most beautiful!

This moth does look like a leaf. It is a beuatiful moth, and a sharp and clear picture. Well done!

Holy cow! Is it really that color ??? I have Hawk moths in NE FL, that are awesome - big and brown - sound like hummingbirds. If I saw this I wouldn't believe my eyes! Your background color helps show the colors really well! Thanks for making my eyes pop open!

Great focus and composition. Love the colors! As does everyone else. ^_^ Don't see a thing wrong with the picture. You have a knack for finding weird bugs, don't you? Good work!
