The shot of this Attacus atlas moth, one of the biggest in the world with a wingspan of 10 to 12 inches, wich normally you can find on a leaf, but in this case is on a Heliconia flower, has been taken in captive conditions at the Emmen Zoo in the Province of Drenthe in the Netherlands.
Taken in June 1996 just after I bought my first Nikon F5 camera. and did want to try out things with that camera.

The BG is dark and therefore does'nt look as natural as it should be.
Nowedays I would do things different, but I did like to do butterfly shots this way than.

It is a dark BG because I did use a fast (1/250) shutter time while using flash and there was'nt much in the BG except for some smaller leaf wich came out underexposed anyway and therefore I did darken the BG totally after because the under exposed leaf were more distracting than adding something to the image.

The faster the shutter time you use taking macro images the darker, more underexposed the BG will be because the reflecting light of the flash unit does not get time to come back in to the lens and therefore can't lighten the film used.

Thanks in advance for looking at and comments are more than welcome.

Kindest regards and have a nice weekend, Harry
