Buff Tip Moth.
Taken off an Ecktachrome slide done many years ago. Done with a Pentax
-standard lens with a no 4 close up lens. Diffused flash. Copied with my home made adapted drainpipe setup.
Makes a change I suppose.

PS Thanks for your comments on my previous.

Not my cuppa this one John but the drainpipe sounds interesting

Thanks Bob.
Tits (and drainpipes)go down much better than Moths it seems

it's lasted well John and it's an interesting looking moth but the light is quite harsh. It adds a dramatic feel perhaps, but I'd like to see a bit more detail around the moth I think.
I wouldn't fancy doing high magnification stuff with film! It must have been expensive!

Hmm - have to agree with Bob. I've looked a few times but can't get to grips with the anatomy on this one John.
