Now the mint is in flower my favourite moth has come to visit. Tiny - just over a centimetre long. With E-M5 and 60mm macro:

Re: Pyrausta aurata
Sharp with nice colours, very nice.
I am thinking of getting a moth trap to start mothing as it can all be done in the garden.

Re: Pyrausta aurata
Stunning shot David.
I struggle to recognise macro moths so no chance with micro moths. With a wingspan of 10-15mm I guess you have to be looking hard for one never mind being able to identify it.
Thanks for sharing.

Re: Pyrausta aurata
Hello David,
That's a lovely shot with amazing detail especially the individual scales on the wings. The 60mm is such a brilliant lens, I love mine and not just for macro it's pretty good as a telephoto as well.

Looks like the insect equivalent of a Vulcan bomber! Great shot.
