Supersize Moth
I wasn't sure where to put these because this guy was huge!
The moth had a good 5+inch wingspan.
I would have preferred more natural surroundings but I worked with it where it landed.... on my garden tools lol
I lit him for this with flashlights and on board flash (taken at night).
C&C always welcome and appreciated.

1 is amazing. I love the definition in the antenae, looks more like a bat than a moth!

#1 is nice.. good detail on the antennae! I WISH I could find subjects like this... this years seems to have fewer bugs of all kinds around here.

Great....how am I ever supposed to sleep again?
There's no correlation between creativity and equipment ownership. None. Zilch. Nada. Actually, as the artist gets more into his thing, and as he gets more successful, his number of tools tends to go down. He knows what works for him. Expending mental energy on stuff wastes time.

Honestly, I really really like #2 and #4. Love the pose in #2 and the spot lighting in #4. Very good work.
You can look on bugguide.net to try to identify it. If you can't, you can sign up and put it up for others to try to identify.
