Shadow Shot Sunday - Moth

Moth

I was wondering what I would have for this week's shadow shot. When I woke up this morning, I found this small visitor in my apartment. He casts a cute shadow on the wall.

Hey Harriet said…
Great photo! It looks like your moth is sitting on the carpet/rug & now I'm picturing you crawling around on the floor chasing the little fella with your camera! It's a pretty moth!
Hey Harriet said…
Oh silly me! He is on your wall! I didn't see that bit before. I prefer the image of you crawling around the floor chasing him though ;)
