The close-up of moths were taken
with a Tamron macros lens. Originally I planned to take picture of
butterflies, but it ended up that I have more pictures of moths that those
of butterflies. Audubon Insectarim introduced their moth display with the
header "Divine design". I was surprised
because it is considered politically incorrect to say so in a science
museum. According to Audubon, moths are
often perceived as dull while butterflies usually get all the attention for
their vibrant colors. But many moths are beautiful, too. Their diversity is
also stunning. Moth species outnumber butterfly species by 15 to 1.
