A leafroller moth
A small bit of light in an otherwise dark forest illuminated this lovely leafroller moth of the Tortricidae family of moths. I don’t know much about these other than they make wonderful subjects when they stay still long enough for a photograph.
For those interested in photographic details, this photo did suffer from some chromatic aberration in the form of green fringe along the lower out-of-focus edges of the moth’s wings. This sometimes happens when an out-of-focus lighter area stands out against a darker region. I did the best I could to reduce this within Lightroom.
