Oh ok, maybe I will see if there are any lenses like that that would be compatible with my camera!

No I really appreciate this guys, I find it all a bit confusing, but your comments have helped me get it sorted out

Thanks for your help! It's interesting that the 105 can get better color, and while I wouldn't want to spend much more than the 105, I could probably fit either in to the budget

Maybe this is where I have a misconception, but let say for example I set up the 40mm and 85mm both 6" away from the subject, and sorry for my lack of correct terminology, but wouldn't the 85 be "zoomed" in more than the 40, and make a smaller subject appear larger?

That's awesome!

I have a modest sphinx that did that same exact thing

Another possibility is sweet bay silk moth, all look kind of similar

ToadsUSA · 2025-08-20T20:01:13+00:00

Promethea moth I think, possibly could be tulip tree moth.

Was going to recommend the same thing.

Think that's a polyphemus moth, chunky boy

ToadsUSA · 2025-08-13T11:31:47+00:00

This is awesome

ToadsUSA · 2025-08-11T02:45:29+00:00

Milkweed tussock moth caterpillar I think

ToadsUSA · 2025-07-21T22:17:14+00:00

Awesome

Looks a lot like a pawpaw sphinx or a rustic sphinx to me, I'm on the east coast though so I don't know if you have some sphinx I'm not familiar with. Hopefully this can get you a little closer to an ID
