Will try and get some better shots tomorrow
I think they are cabbage whites, but may be wrong

Great shots. The weird moth looks a bit like this one:

That is one really weird proboscis on that moth! Any idea what it is adapted to eating/what species it is?
Grass moths.

Ah no the flash helps freeze the shot. With whatever magic it is filled with.
Nigel could probably answer that, but I haven't a clue. 😁😁😁

It's a viltrox jy 780 or something
Not the best in the world but it works 👍🏻
I couldn't get the detail I get without it.
I have yet to get eye detail without a flash. I'm not sure it's possible. Specular highlights ruin it.
Lots of macro you won't need a flash for but there is some you do.

Don't need anything fancy, manual control is fine
Drop me a line if you have one laying idle.
