Wow Nancy! You are so creative ! This is beautiful! Reading the process is impressive! Your notes are interesting and informative, this is a special Luna moth! Very well positioned in the scene , nice detail in its wings and I love its shape. The gold embossed flowers are so pretty and the blue background really pushes them forward! This is very well created, arranged and presented! I'm so happy to award this a six!

Nancy,
A very beautiful picture of the Luna Gold moth alighted on the gold embossed flowers in the background. Artistic composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera & editing techniques & sharp focus.

Comment from Lorafina


Very pretty! Love the colors and the way you manipulated the photo. It reminds me of a Japanese print. The story about how you found as a caterpillar as interest for sure! Great work!

Comment from Charlie Newman


Your creativity really show in this composition. The colors appear natural. Contrast and lighting are well done. Details are soft in the moth, but well done. Actually, the softer details make for a better presentation of the subject to my eyes.

Love what you've done with this shot of the beautiful Luna Moth with the golden flowers. I like how you presented this. I like all the detail you can see in the wings of the moth - it looks like some sea elephant-like creature with those eyes! Great composition. Suzanne

    Hi Suzanne, I swear I sent you a thank you note, Heaven knows where it went! LOL Thank you for the simply lovely review for this. I like the fact you saw an elephant's face, I'm surprised I didn't. Maybe I can use this moth to create one from the moth. Thanks for giving me the idea. I'll see where it goes and let you know, plus give you credit for giving me the idea. :o) Nancy

The moth is gorgeous even with your manipulation the very exercises you did to get there has given a perfect idea of what this species is like. I love your story, it is well written , interesting and your actions so innovative for the life of this little creature. I commend you.
