Tropical mothing - impression, La Planada Nature Reserve, Colombia Just wanted to include a shot to give an impression of a very typical yield when putting out a moth light in the jungle. The situation is a lot less static than the photo suggests, if you'd take another shot one minute later, about one third of the sheet would be totally different. There's a constant landing, going, overlapping of species. You can also see how it sometimes is challenging to photograph one straight-on (right angle) as well as in isolation.
