Wow, that's a superb capture of the moth! A great still-action shot, and I know he didn't stay still for very long. We have them in our area, as they migrate through once a year.
Great close-up Christian! That little bug really has a fast wing beat; faster than the eye can see and hard for the camera to freeze. Good beautiful image.
