Wow, it's beautiful. I love the pink with the brown. Lovely. :smile:

I quite agree. The colouring is subtle and refined.

I'm not a fan of moths but even I have to admit it's impressive!

It turned out the moth was dead :icon_frown: However,I put him in a sandwich box and have it sealed so hopefully I might even be able to take a picture on my daughter's mobile phone.

That is very sad.

Out of interest, how big is the moth?
