*Shrugs* They stay beautiful longer when you pin them? ( though, i cant argue that a picture does about the same thing)

Do they really? Is it the physical presence that is beautiful or is it the thing itself?

Is it the shape it has that's beautiful? Is it the fact that a thing like this exists beautiful?

I think its physical ( to see how big it is in person, and all the little delicate parts) as well as the thing itself... The shape and delicate nature of them certainly. I dont feel, unless youre a better photographer than i *at least lol*, that a photo can truly capture this, though, they can certainly magnify certain parts, and help them to stand out.... seeing something like this in person is just entirely different.

Id have to say, the fact that MOST things exists is interesting and intriguing and beautiful in and of itself. ( Though, there are some things that i wish didn't exist too)
 
great pics and that is a really cool looking specimen..is that a moth of some sort?
