At long last the Brahmaea emerges! And worth the wait - an excellent series of shots!

Interesting series. My first thought was that it was an extreme close-up of feathers.
I like the last one best.

BTW, what is it? A moth?

What a great series! I knew what it was from frame one, but that is only because of some shots that Bob posted recently.

I am so glad you showed what it was at the end. My first thought was indian corn. Don't know why. I will refer back to my lefthandedness It is amazing what you see when you get that close to something.
