Marcie and Mike O’Connor, moth’ers from Wisconsin (USA), experimented with a new scheme this year, for their moth party. One of the problems people always have – especially folks who have never looked at moths before – is that moths are hard to appreciate by just looking at them with your eyes. The colors are often subtle, and the designs tiny. So they came up with this idea – to let people see the enlarged photos as they’re being taken. Mike came up with the way to do it, and he’s written out how on a blog page.
Was this event publicized online? I live in Northwestern Ontario but I would have driven to WI to be part of this evening!
Yes, it was on the map (http://nationalmothweek.org/events-map-2/) as a private event.
