Do you love animal/nature photo contests? Do you know about @papa-pepper’s Combination Photo Contest?

# It is another great day here on Steemit!

When I first saw this Moth in the house I thought it was black and white in colour. It wasn’t until I escorted it to the garden and saw it in natural sunlight that I realized it was in fact decorated with the most magnificent blues.

When I saw its gorgeous painted beauty I decided I would like to enter it in @papa-pepper’s COMBINATION PHOTO CONTEST he holds every week which features our favourite photos of plants and animals in photos together. You just need to add a proof photo that you took the photo - it can be a selfie with the creature or a piece of paper like you see here.. If you don’t know about this but enjoy photo competitions do check it out. You can enter more than one photo as well.

https://steemit.com/contest/@papa-pepper/papa-pepper-s-combination-photography-contest-week-43

So this is the proof of photo that goes along with the first entry shot.

There are so many ways to enjoy our days on Steemit! I just keep finding more.... and more amazing people in the community too! (Thanks @papa-pepper) I LOVE STEEMIT!

Very beautiful blue moth! He’s very still for your photography, a good model!
His eyes look so much like the red ant in my garden.

Oh girl!!! How do you do it that you can even put a piece of paper next to his head and he just simply continues chilling there :D

I was trying to take a photo of a squirrel last weekend.. it was a disaster! It started with asking him kindly to give me a second without moving. Then I started begging..threatening..and ended up cursing him much to his entertainment.

I swear I've seen a cheeky smile on his face right before he disappeared for good :D It brings my blood pressure up when I only think about it :D

You must have better methods :D
