Feathered Thorn Moth

Hi guys !

 

Here's a beautiful Moth, known as the Feathered Thorn, and from the image you can see why they call it that I suppose..

 

My flat mate found this moth and caught it for me. I decided to get a full body shot first before going 10x on just the wings. I used a 50mm Prime lens FD Reversed on 200mm worth of extension, 2x LED Lamps, which are already breaking on me and paper to diffuse the light

( Notice right side is darker as right lamps turned off for 10 frames without me noticing )

 

Hope you all like it, have a great week, 20x coming soon !
