Wildlife photographers help people stay aware of the rare and peculiar creatures living on the Earth.
It is because of their photographs that we know how some animals look like.
For instance, endangered and rare creatures such as white-bellied pangolins, or Philippine eagles were captured by wildlife photographer prior to them being extinct.
David Weiller is a wildlife photographer who explores nature to find what wonderful things it stores, and recently, he came across rare animal named the Brahmaea Hearseyi moth. The photographer lives in Frances, and he had been into wildlife photography for a long time.

In 2008, he picked it up as a hobby when he was traveling with his friend Thomas Marent who is a wildlife photographer. He was taking the pictures to include in the primate book titled Like Us: Encounters and Primates.
These species can be seen in Western China, Himalayas, Philippines, Burma, and Sundaland. Weiller came across this rare moth in a place called Sabah, located in Borneo. He revealed that he was lucky as the moth was attracted to the night light of his bungalow within the rainforest.
He added he was surprised to see this moth with striking patterns and it appeared freshly hatched. The creature flew around the light for a while before it rested on a nearby trunk. When the moth was calmly sitting on the tree trunk, he managed to take an HD video of this creature.
When asked about the process, he said that it takes an entire day or even week to get some shot, but moths are easy to capture, which made the shot simple. He took the picture early in the morning when it is not too warm to fly, and the creatures tend to remain still.
He further added that the next morning he saw the moth sitting still in the same place. This gave him the perfect opportunity to capture the beautiful creature from different angles.
