Nice work with beautiful detail & color. My taste is not in favor of black BGs as I find them too unnatural - one man's opinion!

Wonderful! How did you get them to pose for you? You could hardly have arranged them better if they had been moths made of silk.

Why did you use a polarizer?

Really nice. I find the black BG a bit to dark for the image.
Did you manage to move the moths to this perch?

Congrats on the WP.
