Wicked pic I just took

abasuto · Jun 7, 2005

Found this critter on a bush outside while ago. To me, the pic looks like it's been photoshoped, like the moth was edited onto the bush, colors look "fake". It's not though, 100% how I took the pic. I resized it to make it smaller, but that's it.

Holy shit, I've never seen a moth like that in real life. You're a lucky man.

i dig moths with their eagle like faces. thats a cool moth and a cool pic!

That's pretty kick ass, is it a moth or a butterfly? And they have crazy things like that in Georgia?

Looks like his back wing took a little damage though. Reminds me of something from some movie or game, but can't remember what right now. Cool photo.

A moth. They're pretty rare to find inside the city, but get out in the country and those kinda moths aren't all that rare. At night they'll come around if you have a bright spotlight outside your house attracting them.

That's fucking nuts.

It makes me itch.

Kiel · Jun 7, 2005

Damn, we dont see anything like that here in MN.

Now lets see a pic of your car.

The color saturation on that thing is really wierd.

What kind of camera you have?

Liquid Snake · Jun 7, 2005

Luna moths. Very pretty. Never seen one, but I did spot a few of their close relatives that are native to MI. It's fairly astounding to see a 6 inch moth for the first time.

VERY nice picture of that moth. I think its a Luna Moth? Interesting camoflauge fake eyes on the wings!

Here are a few interesting insects I found late summer of last year, in a "farm house" a little bit out of this main area:

The first is a moth that was under a light near the front door at night, the second is a big beetle that got into the house (the resident cat was fascinated with the beetle, I had to take the bug away and let him go outside before she attacked it!).

[waits for Boog to quote Liquid Snake's pic]

Very cool pic though. I've seen the big-ass moths before that look almost like smal birds, but never one of those. Great photo.

And Abasuto, that's a really great shot you got there. It could go into an insect picture book or something, very nice.

OrochiEddie · Jun 7, 2005

nice pic. I see some of our resident Neo members get in touch with their natury side.

It dont look real to me, sorry if im wrong. The depth of field looks wrong.

Edit: you probably took more than one snap. can we see the others.

Electroman · Jun 8, 2005

Abasuto-

First of all, that is an amazing shot of nature.

Second of all... do consider searching on the net for amateur photography sites that take photos. Years back, I took a pic of my father's kitten cowering over a baby field mouse, entered it into some photography book website. It got published in that very book, and I bought a copy for my father later that year.

Just a thought...

Olympus D-425 (4MP).

The bush it was on was right under a yellowish looking like light that stays on 24/7 on the sides of my appartments parking entrance ( high pressure sodium bulb ). It was also grey outside from full thin overcast. I'm sure those two factors had alot to do with the colors coming out ackward.
