Amazing colors on this moth, Paul. Have never seen anything like that before. Beautiful insect that you have captured with sharp details and perfect exposure. I like the iridescence on the wings. Excellent composition as well. Well done and TFS. : )

Not found this one yet here, Paul, but it's a nice subject, specially with interesting various colors according to the POV. You've caught it very nicely, using the sun to enhance it's colors. Well done.

Yes I like this beautiful and interesting Zygaena. Great details and colors on wings. I learned that red points are warning for enemy... Thanks for sharing Paul.

Hi Paul, this is a beautiful specimen. The one with the yellow spots must be wonderful too. I shot a moth just like this but without spots, what a shame. :)
Sharp details and lovely colours with efficient Dof.
Well done.

Hi Paul. Lovely image, shot with great technique. I love the light and colours and your composition is great. Great DOF and detail. Funnily enough I saw a Burnet for the first time ever last week but I didn't know there were 5 spots as well as 6 spots (let alone yellow forms) so I didn't check it out in any great detail.

Another nice capture Paul. Beautiful colours and as usual sharp and detailed textures. This one has a special beautie-horror aspect that makes this insect always interesting. I have never seen one here in Spain, only from TN shots, so thanks for sharing.

A perfect macro taken with the same lense that I've got! A colourful moth on my favourite flower. Do you find, though, that the Sigma lens gives you a narrow DOF and what do you do to avoid it? do you simply stand back from your subject and then crop?

In any event, I really like it and it goes to my favourites.

Thanks for sharing,
Shelly.
