Photo submission for this weeks
Favorite Photo Friday
was chosen solely for its uniqueness.

I noticed this ultra tiny moth on the outside sidelight by my front door.
(Photo was taken from inside)
Wanting to show relative size, I held up my fingers although it made steadying the camera with the other hand nearly impossible.

For sheer fun (and because Abbey was over my shoulder while editing) I went all the way with the lomo-ish effect in Picnik. The above photo is cropped from the photo below.

Can't believe I am getting around to last weeks photos only now! and I thought the summer would give me a bit more time! What a dreamer – although I must say I am accomplishing a whole lot!
These photos are spectacular. I love the colors and the bokeh of the green trees etc out in the yard – in seeing the series it makes me think that the little bugger is just wishing it could be outside.
Your fingers give great perspective on the size.
Love it Love it Love it!

Beautiful photo. I loved the way you cropped it, makes it so much more unique. Mothes are such amazing little animals.

I like the photo of the moth best when it is framed by your fingers. jj

My Sunday teacher tells us that if we hear something twice, then it's from the Lord, and He's trying to tell us something!!! If you're feeling led to post the same song "Lead Me"…then, one of your followers surely needs to hear it, too! I love the lyrics…because sometimes it's hard to be a submissive wife!!

Your photo editing turned out lovely! Isnt it amazing how perfect God created this tiny creature?…even in the tiniest details that are on its wings.
Blessings & Aloha!
(my most recent post talks about a specific set of wings, but I do share some drawigns of other "wings" :o)

One of my most precious "things" i love is my camera… what would we do without them these days? You couldve enjoyed that beautiful lil creature for a moment and probabaly forgot about it in a short period of time.
However — now — for forever you will have this lovely thing!
Thanks so very much for joining with us on FFB 🙂
Have a great weekend!
