It's Boneset season in my yard. :-) This is my first image from the small patch in the corner.

Hi

You have to love the combination of that richly colourful moth against that textural dark green perch, quite splendid in fact. Quite funny/interesting to see one antenna tuck away under the body, I have not seen that happen often.

A top all round image

All the best
Matthew

Really wonderful image Steve!, your DOF and detail are impressive!, the rich colours work a treat (with the super smooth bg adding the quality touch to all the detail), the colour of the Moth just jumps off my screen vs the lovely greens, great comp........quality macro image mate!!!!!!!!! :D

Love the strong colours and lines Steve, great how you have the spear head shape of the moth sitting on the same (but in reverse) shaped leaf. Very clever composition and superb detail!

Wish I could take credit for the positioning...but that's the way I found it. The little bugger didn't move for hours. :-)
