Went out to photograph some Commas - which I did get some although none that I'm happy with, but ended up with these attractive moths again. Had a bit of light shower and plenty of breeze.

Thanks for looking.

A very beautiful, if somewhat clichéd (apart from the spots that is), image. It would be nice to see one flying toward the flower. Now that would be something different :wink: :smile:

That's very nice indeed.
Plenty of "guts" to it.

Glorious shot, best I've seen of these. Went to Whitby recently and they were around in their hundreds, never seen so many.

Great shot Des. A very pleasant coloured perch to compliment the moths colour. Nice clean b/g too.
