During a recent night survey at Sungei Buloh:
Gynacantha dorhni, a large but slender and beautiful dragonfly, contentedly perched and completely oblivious to the world around it. This individual was, with the mutual agreement of the entomologists present, collected and presented to our in-house odonata expert who then recommended that it be kept as a museum voucher specimen.
A mangrove cricket, back-lit; I had only a moment to set this shot up before it hopped away into the foliage.
A strikingly-patterned and coloured moth (Dysphania sp.) which drew ooohs and ahhs and started a mini-lecture to some less inverty-type volunteers who asked about the differences between moths and butterflies. This moth was also responsible for making me lie flat on my back shooting against the sky with ants crawling around on the ground next to my head. Thank goodness none got into my ear.
