Looking for butterflies at the Calendar gardens, and did not find them, but did spot this moth flutterby.

Used the faithful canon 70-200mm with the kenko 1x4 converter, hand held with the new canon camera.

Thank you in advance for commenting.

Good close-up with fine details on the moth. And as usual great background.

It seems like this summer butterflies are here one day & gone the next day. Glad you spotted this moth ... excellent detail too. Wonderful capture, Sandi.

Think that Richie is specialized in moth's because he knows that this is a female. Take his words for granted, lol.
Excellent capture again, Sandi. You have a good (camera) body!.

Hi, Tigs...

A two for one special with a beautiful shot of the moth and the flowers. Your work with the camera seems so natural that it appears to be second nature to you. When I look at shot after shot with never a noticeable flaw, I continue to have this picture in my head of you with a detachable hand. The hand screws off and a camera screws on. It's like the camera is just a simple of extension of your being. I'm running out of synonyms for your shots. I never get to use my toolbox full of words like horrible and disgusting. I was thrilled last week when the shot of the dragonfly was too small. I thought, "Jumpin' Jujubes, she's not perfect after all."

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . .

Your shots are all worthy of the perms Tigz. Colors and clarity make this another candidate.
