    Wow Paul what is that red behind the tobacco moth? Very bright.

    Plain old Canon EOS, the red is the garden fence.

    Nice Shoot'n, Paul...Really Like The Tobacco Moth..The Tobacco Moth Is Also A Sphinx Moth, Aka Hummingbird Moth.

    Aahhh, just like yours...Why Hummingbird - the size? Paul, I love the red background and the moth. Like the butterfly's angle.

    Again, I heart Hummingbird Moths so I realllllly dig that shot! The butterfly is gorgeous, too... great work. Love the perspectives and the colors.

  • ROCKADEE
    They Are Called Hummingbird Moths Because Of Their Hummingbird Like Wings...The Wings Beat Real Fast Just Like A Hummingbird.
