What a funny story this is Ram :))) I guess that this moth has became your friend :) This is so special. It wanted to thank you to have thanking it after your first shot. This moth is truly beautiful with its white colors and you captured excellent details with good control on exposure. I also like the contrast between the white and the blue. It looks very friendly Ram and it is looking at you! What a nice story. TFS,
Claudine

A very amusing capture - in all respects. Well done - and the whites are all well exposed as well - what more could you ask for!

Well you didn't include this from the moths perspective:-) Obviously this was more than a simple moth. How long it took us to discover the instincts and language of dolphins and prairie dogs, yet they have a distinct language which has quite a lengthy dictionary of phrases.

This is more than a moth. It is a sentient being of some sort, to whose waves you have picked up on. For it was not the moth which was attracted to you but you to the moth. Wonderful philosophy behind this picture of your friend....

Hi Ram,

That is quite a story! You may have made a friend for life. I must say I have never seen a moth on a mouse before. Wonderful macro. I never knew there were so many details on a moth. The eye is marvelous. Great shot!

Hello Ram,
Fine capture of a lateral view of a species of NOCTUID moth unknown to me. All I know is that it is a noctuid but even if I could see the wing pattern I don't think I could give you the exact ID.
Amusing note and fine sharp shot and thanks for sharing both.
Best wishes, Ivan

Maybe this moth liked your flash so much he wants his picture taken again. Great details on the white so your exposure was great also, thanks Ram.

What a beautiful and likeable moth, Ram!!
I hadn't seen this post of yours! The story is a good one to tell. How did you pay your dinner with a moth in your hand? It is clear that the moth didn't suffer any harm, for she was delighted to come back.
Excellent macro and beautiful composition.
Congratulations and thanks for sharing.
Greetings
