Moth On The Wall

It was late in the evening when I spotted this moth at my home recently. Went straight to the drybox grab my gear and setup my flash and mini softbox.

When I went back to the balcony it had move, but to a better location for me. Moreover to a light brown colored wall which gives the picture a lovely balance of brown hues. The moth probably stayed there for hours but I only needed a few minutes to get a decent shot.
