Also warning to those "afraid of bugs" apparently I have given "some" people nightmares from these images.. *shrug*
oh yah, for anyone interested in what it is:
Calleta silkmoth (Eupackardia calleta)
Made in Taos Pueblo - New Mexico
So was the picture intended for the bowl or the chilis?

I took that picture this summer while in Paris. it kinda looks like a poster picture or something, I like it even if it is plain.
actually, it was intended for the material the house is made of, with all the little pieces of hay in the mud. The bowl and the chilis just happened to be there, but which add that little extra to the pic.
Where was the beach shot taken?
Well it's not a bug, its an insect and as to what kind of insect it is; it is in the family Lepidoptera, which is the butterflies and moths, this particular species is a Calleta silkmoth (Eupackardia calleta). Quite a stunning specimen, we collected and raised the caterpillar until it pupated. It was in it's cocoon (pupa) for over 12 months before hatching out this last week.
WOW... and I thought I was bored...
No, seriously... this is pretty cool stuff
