Nature photography by Frode Falkenberg

About

We've decided to upgrade the factsheets at lepidoptera.no. The revamp includes new species plates, now with the background removed. Angles and size of the animals are stadardized, making the pictures better fit for comparisons. The photos used for the plates are of alive insects. Many of the photos are taken by myself, but there are plenty crucial contributions by other moth photographers in Norway.
