Overhead shot of a 1.5cm triangular moth on a finger. It has very busy markings. Primarily dark chestnut and flecks of white with bright pink or light purple suffusion coming through in vague wavy lines. There are two dark teeth-shaped mark on the wings either side of the abdomen and just below these, nearer the outer edges is a mirror image stigmata which is made of two rectangles of chestnut edged in white. They are joined at one corner so it resembles an angled L, (i.e. the horizontal is straight but the vertical is angled at 45 degrees). It has two thin, wiry antannae 5233636c78d8fa36.jpeg Side on shot of a moth on a table. It holds its wings vertical above its abdomen.  Its wings are heavily scalloped along the back edge.  The moth is a pale autumnal orange, like a fading leaf. It has a darker orange band edged in brown running across its wing with two white moon shaped stigmata within the band, giving it its name, Lunar Thorn bdcca67ebd1509a4.jpeg Shelves with neatly arranged skulls. Most are facing forward. Some are slightly angled and one on the bottom shelf is facing left to show a hole. 6f5ee76695147611.jpeg A stack of thousands of limb bones, about 6ft high stretching all the way down the side of a crypt from front to back. There is the odd skull with the stack. At the back of the crypt there is a triangular window high up with a grid of iron across it. a9bc16d046d50339.jpeg A close up of a skull wedged within a stack of limb bones. It is centred and faces directly to the camera. da8e578d28801bb0.jpeg A small 0.5cm moth on a wooden table. It is a rounded arrowhead / triangular shape with soft corners. It is brown suffused with purple, with a pale and indistinct splodge on the back which resembles a paw print. The wing edge has two distinct yellow sections. Two thin opposing shoulder stripes near the top, and then two opposing rectangular notches about two-thirds down joined by a yellow edge that runs down the rest of the wing, across the bottom and up the other side to the opposing notch.  It's like a yellow U shape with two square notches facing inwards at either end.  The bottom wing edge (termen) is very fringed.  It has two extremely long thing antennae which stretch back and are as long as its body, if not a little more. b13c2e933698f8dc.jpeg Overhead shot of a plate of food in three parts.
