A totally fantastic shot I reckon. Very unusual and brilliantly captured. The colours, the focus, the positioning are all exceptional. The black background is a really good foil giving us the pkeasure of seeing this very unusual picture.

Love the image of the moth. It looks like two sad eyes on a elephants face. Beautiful color. Sharp focus. Perfect framing. The soft sunlight with the black background helps bring out the detail of the subjects.. Well done.

Fantastic photograph of this Luna moth on a rose. I never saw a moth like that. The black background enhances the yellow of the flower and green of the moth. Good focus and lighting. Nicely composed. Sharp detail. Well done.

Lee Ann,
A beautiful & dramatic picture of the Luna Moth with it's back lit translucent wings allowing the gold of the Rose glowing through it's wings both the moth & the Rose standing out in sharp contrast from the black background. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.
Susan

A beautiful shot that is shown in superb detail. I like the composition and texture of the moth's wings. The colors are beautiful and look great against that darkened background.

This is a great combination. The yellow rose looks indeed like a little sun beneath the silver of the luna moth. How the color of the rose shines through the wings if the moth is especially intriguing. Your photo is excellently focused, exposed ant treated with mixed media. I am impressed by the sharpness of detail and the realism of color. The dark background emphasizes the couple remarkably. The rose and the moth are perfectly placed within the frame. The composition is balanced.

At first sight I thought your nice image was a routine rose shot until I read your helpful notes! Your lovely image benefits from having a good, almost central composition with good exposure and sharpness. Well taken!

This is absolutely gorgeous LeeAnn, it's such a lovely yellow rose that the Luna moth is clinging to, I see good definition in both the rose and the moth. It's a nice placement in the frame and both subjects are standing out from the black background excellently. This is of course , well focused, this image is clear, exposure is well managed, colors and tones appear true and natural. Well composed and presented!
