Thank you JC the possible ID and also thank you Ivan for the clue.

Yesterday in Lalbagh I found this beautifully colored moth (trying to find our the ID, will be happy if somebody can provide). I was walking in the grass and suddenly this one flew and landed on this leaf, hand held, I captured (only two frames) before it walked to hide under the leaf. Its small may be thumb nail size.

Hi Nagaraj,

Beautiful macro capture of the colorful moth! It looks so adorable. The sharpness and well-chosen POV with shallow DOF, jointly give great results here. The colors are very natural and the textures on the wings are very well shown. I like the great contrast between the moth's colors and the green leaf. Great composition!

PS: Sorry, Nagaraj! I can't help you in identifying this moth species.

best regards,
Paras Bhalla

Hi Nagraj,

Looks as if you have used your wife's nail polish...wow what amazing play of colours in nature...you just cant match them. Well taken.

Hello Nagraj,
A striking species, of what looks like some species Pyralid moth.
The colours, contrast against the leaf and composition make this a fine image to view.
Thanks and best regards,
Ivan

Slav Nagaraj,

Beautiful colour combination. Looks like it is wearing this lovely yellow saree with a pinkish border.
Considering it is a very small Moth, the macro is pretty good though it still could be sharper. The green leaf provides the scale for its size and serves as a suitable BG that highlights the subject.

Hi Ngaraj,
this is real lovely capture of the unique moth. Very beautiful indeed and the colours are so lovely. You have done justice to it by rendering it brilliantly,
The criss-crossing of the vein nd the moth wing itself is very dynsmic.
Well presented shot.

Foozi
