I managed to find a hawk moth in front of my house, but it's a shame I found this moth at night so I couldn't capture its beauty perfectly. I myself rarely find moths like this and this moth has a very unique shape, and after I searched for information about this moth on Google, it turns out this is a moth that is active at night. This moth has a size that is not too big and not too small and this is a very suitable size for photos using a macro lens, but at that time I only took pictures of it using a cellphone camera because I didn't have enough light. Hopefully I will be able to find this moth again another time because I want to capture its beauty perfectly.

I managed to photograph this moth while it was perched on a white paper flower. At first, it flew around a few times, which annoyed me, but that's normal considering this is a moth that can fly very fast.
Okay everyone, now I'm going to share some pictures of this moth here.
