Stunning moth

It's really the best gift of macro photography, and there have been MANY, that we can appreciate the grandeur of even the tiniest micromoths. Every one of them seems to have a different fashion to them. In fact now that I follow photographers back in my home country, I see more than I ever bothered to look for first hand, just because they were beige. As if a beautiful outfit can't be beige. I was blind, BLIND I TELL YOU! They're all on promenade for the moon. I love them all so much, it makes my head shudder uncontrollably. 🌕
