#1,2 n 3 (Day Flying Moth)
#4 n 5 (Hopper/Butterfly)
 

Bro, your daily training has paid off.
Good work :thumbsup: Lighting & focusing has improved :thumbsup:
Keep it coming ;)

#1 is the best of the series

#5 is not a good angle on the moth.. next time try head front view shot ;)

btw.. i thought #1 #2 are Tiger Moth
 

lovely shots . . . :)

definitely not the same family . . . :)
 

Tish,
I saw #1 while at SRP last sunday afternoon. was wandering if it is moth family.

hi dykat, it was my second one from srp too, hope we could id this one someday :)

Lovely shots, esp like #1.
thanks oriomystery!
 

The last 2 are butterfly.
 

You've shot two different species of moths in #1-3.

The last two, as already mentioned by others here, are butterflies belonging to the Hesperiidae family (usually called Skippers). This particular species that you've shot is called the Bush Hopper (Ampittia dioscorides camertes)
