Evening Primrose Flower and Moth
This appears to be the palest Primrose Moth I have ever seen. We have been regularly checking the Evening Primrose plant for moths and this is our first one on this plant. This is our first plant on the property in several years. Typically, these moths have pink coloring on the wings. For this image, I used my manual focus Tamron Adaptall-2 Model 52A SP70-210mm f3.5-4 CF Tele Macro Lens with attached Tamron Adaptall-2 Pentax KA Mount on Pentax K20D Camera, hand held, manually focused, Shake Reduction set to 200mm, ISO 200, f22, 1/180 sec, with fill-in flash from camera's built-in electronic flash. This is a full resolution Large JPEG and is Straight Out Of Camera (SOOC) and is without any post-processing, adjusting, editing, cropping, or re-sizing. This is a half life-size (1:2), at the sensor, close-up.
