Check out this beauty! Both Attachments are the same moth! One was taken in incandescent light and the other florescent and snapped a few images!! Arline came out from the kitchen and said there is a moth on her sink. I went in and moved it to two different locations. Keep the Spirit of Aloha alive!

Hi Michael,
Your new photos of this species are much better than the original one you sent our way. It is great having the comparison of “Color as Seen and Photographed” which is a wonderful Kodak publication, long out of print. The fluorescent lighting really accentuates the greens, and the warmer incandescent lighting makes the moth appear almost brown. Congratulations on getting your images posted on Bill Oehlke’s wonderful site.
