My wife and I were pleasantly surprised to see this beauty yesterday in the backyard. An early emerger.
Any,
How does the bark work as a backdrop?

That sure was nice to find him in your backyard. Hopefully spring is here, or at least early. Been a tough winter. Nicely capture, Allen. I was able to go to the Botanical Garden today. Not a lot there yet but I got a few shots. Hopefully something I can post later. It was just great to be back out there.
Absolutely gorgeous find in pristine condition, Allen, and you did a great job photographing him.
Splendid shot, Allen, and the dark rough bark contrasts beautifully with the smooth colorful moth. I think these moths are quite easy to gently move on a stick. In this case, it’s already in the best place for a shot. The f32 paid off - a flash would change the color.
Wonderful, with excellent detail and the perfect BG! I love the way you framed it – no suggestions!
Looks very good and am glad that you are getting some Spring temperatures. Overall sharpness is excellent with just a small %age of the subject falling slightly from the ideal plane of focus. The diagonal placement works fine for this image. A beautiful image and its fine as presented…Jim
Allen: These are such neat creatures and the bark is a great BG IMO. We have some monarch caterpillars on our milkweed and we actually had a few chrysalises that over-wintered and today I spotted a dragonfly cruising about so it looks like critter shooting is about to begin. You’ve gotten off to a great start. >=))>
Wow, Alen, I have never seen one of those. I like the color contrast which came out great.
Allen, this is an outstanding look at this Luna Moth, where the background adds a lot to the view and sets of the moth very well. Nice Find!
