Anthophila Fabriciana

Nettle Tap Moth

I took this one last year , but as I didn't managed to capture another one this year - and these ox-eye daisies are going over, I thought I would put. it up. Actually, I haven't managed to capture a single butterfly or moth as yet this year despite there having been an abundance of them. Ah well....

This tiny nettle tap moth is said to be about 10-15mm, I'm going to say this one was no more than 10mm as I recall that was quite a small daisy it was on. Whatever, it's still the smallest moth I've never seen :^))

Incidentally, without my 20x magnifier on the lcd, there is no way I would ever have known this tiny chap was there even then.......

Sometimes I would like to look inside the brain of my tom cat to understand what he is thinking...

Micro (macro) photographs of lit candles, showcasing the amazing art that's produced when a candle's wick burns and the candle's wax melts into incredible shapes.

The heptagon is the seven-sided shape produced, I believe, as an artifact via reflection or captured lens flare from my camera's lens.

It took me awhile to be able to expose properly for both the burning wick and the flame itself, and it's challenging to get a sharp focus as I shoot these handheld.

Click on the photo to view it large and better see the amazing details.

I hope you enjoy.

Reflected in the dewdrop which is hanging down from one of my other plants is a potted tomato plant, and one of my house's windows. The dewdrop wasn't much larger than the size of a paper match head! Micro (macro) photo...click on it to view larger.

Teeny Weeny, upside down hover fly feasting on a lily stamen.

Worth a double click zoom - I've upscaled it x2 so you could better see the pollen in his mouth though for some reason the upscale version on here doesn't seem to zoom any more than the normal version on my pc, so not much point :^))

I was simply trying to photograph the Lily when I decided to get a bit closer and see if anything turned up.....and of course, it did :^)

A couple more shots from the Summer...as I watch more rain come down.

Please view large...many thanks.

As always,many thanks to everyone who visits,faves,and,comments on my photos.Always appreciated.

A miniature mushroom, growing in a bed of moss on top of my fence.

The moon on the left is nearly full and taken on April 19th of this year. This moon was known as a "Micro Moon." The furthest full moon of the year. The moon on the right was shot yesterday and as you probably know, a nearly full Supermoon. They were both shot from the same location and with the same equipment. There was no cropping to the frames before the composite was made.

Thanks for viewing!

My daughter took this one. I cropped out the date stamp, but this is otherwise untouched by editing software. She needs a camera with a real macro lens!
