Description

... Today there was a huge bug on the wall of the bank across the street, so i've gone take a look, and ran back for the cam. Then decided to move it to our back yard, where it would be more safe than on the (yucky colored) bank wall, and where i could take better photos of it.... ... so here it is, found out that it seems to be an Oleander Hawk Moth, which is a surprising find in Dayton, Ohio. Anyway, hope you like... Enjoy! :) Jean-Luc to see the photo without the Rendo overlay, click on it for full view Previously: "Face Transformer"

Awesome capture! He looks like leaves. I bet he'd blend in well with his surroundings. I've never heard of this one before. What a unique find!

Beautiful moth and image! It would be lovely regardless of its location, but looks much better here than on a ugly colored bank wall. It looks marvelously soft. Superb capture of its gorgeous colors, patterns, and textures. I looked it up. I wonder what it's doing in Ohio. Excellent shot!
