Camera Critters ~ Moth at Midnight


Yes, I actually sat in the dark on my deck at midnight waiting for moths to land so I could capture them. This was before I knew snakes were hanging out underneath the deck. *shivers


I linked up with Camera Critters.

Mwahahahahaha! Great shot & I'm so sorry you had to learn about the lurking snakes the hard way.

Wonderful photo... I'm guessing you used a flash? Whatever you did, it turned out great!

Thank you for the kind comments. Those snakes still have me creeped out!

@Spare Parts. My deck has a flood light that I had on almost directly above the moth at about 6 feet up. So I had some light to work with. Then I raised my ISO to about 800 to let in more light, no flash used. Raising the ISO did take away some of the macro detail but not too much. Hope that helps.
