Are you sure this is a moth and not a butterfly? Did you see the antennae? They usually allow you to differentiate between the two, butterflies have thin antennae with a small, sometimes elongated, blob at the end while Moth antennae usually look like tiny feathers with lots of protrusions throughout their length and pointed tips. Hint: to show the subject larger in PN you could crop it down to as small as 600 pixels each side, this would make it easier to see the detail. Also try taking several pictures from different angles, one might be sharper than the rest and show the fine details and the different angles would allow more of the subject to be seen. You are allowed up to 6 pictures with each spotting.
