Elephant Hawk Moth
An Elephant Hawk Moth (Deilephila elpenor) from a moth trap. Ever since I was a boy I've been fascinated by the incredible colour scheme of these moths. I've been experimenting with different approaches to photographing moths from moth traps. As always, often the simplest methods are best. This was just handheld by holding it up to the sky, and using a twin flash with my concave diffuser designs.
