Hi Pawel.
Your last insect pictures are simply amazing. I am glad that you use your perfect lens with tubes for close-up shooting. Results are very impressive. Pictured subject at the photo is sweet. Moth and leaf/stems create a fine and pleasant for look composition. BG is great, lights and colours as well as details reproduction of the moth are stunning. Especially I am impressed with reflection of its splendid antennas. Bravo.
Alexei.
