That's nice, Frank. Nice angle on the moth and composed nicely with the
background, which really works great here--nice complementary tonality.
Cheers, Christine

There were thousands upon thousands of these all over the park by the
lake this past weekend. From afar they just look like purple-winged
moths, about and inch or two long. It's only when you get closer up
that you see their orange heads and iridescent abdomens (I think
that's the abdomen - below the head). They spend most of their time
in the air, and if they're perched they will flit off once you get
closer than about 2 or 3 feet, so I didn't get as many good shots as
I'd have liked. This one was one of the better ones:

Hope you enjoy. The insect-catching birds certainly enjoyed; they
were having a field day!
Comments welcome.
cheers,
frank
