I was going to sleep when I just thought - WOW - what a moth!
I took many, many photos of it and this is what came out. :)
I am not an expert for insects but I was told in the comments below that it is a Cinnabar moth (Tyria jacobaeae).
Thanks to :iconsato-photography:
If you wonder about the exif data - the moth was moving rapidly and it was very hard to get a sharp shot of it, even with 1/2500 seconds.

I hope you like this beauty :)

Greetings
Jan

Absolutely gorgeous!! Everything about it, the colours that work so well together, the lighting and the contrast between the hand and the tiny moth, simply beautiful! :D

You're welcome:D When I do features I try and put lots of focus on a few pieces, rather than a bit of focus on a hundred.
