Stacked Buff Tip
Buff Tip moth
Actually found this as is. They often rest like this on twigs as camo. I always used to thingk they looked like fag ends.Play with them too much and they drop off.
Good for image stacking though.
D7000 Sigma 150mm
200ISO
80th sec @f5.6
5 stacked images. CZM and Paint Shop Pro 7
80% of frame.
Cheers
Thanks for your interest in my last pic.

Some nice detail on that there biggie john. This shows how perfect nature had the whole evolution thing down pat.

I was only thinking earlier this morning that stacking seemed to have gone out of fashion a bit. Good to see it used well, as here.

Thanks both.
David I,ve been doing loads of it( was going to say "stacks") I don't put much on as no one seems very interested in the methods and many of the things I do are not the "honeypotters " :biggrin: I'll stick a few more on.Forgot the 3 D on this one too.:frown:

Camo masters without a doubt. Yet to see one in the flesh in these parts. The large version takes the image up a notch IMHO.

Stunning detail JR particularly the missing scales to the wings and the perch is perfect for the subject.
