Comment from Mara del Mar
Lol. What not is beak, if not wing, ha,ha! And not of bird, precisely. Love the beautiful color, well detailed design, excellent composition, lighting, and sharp focus. Well done.

Fred,
C'est ne pas un oiseau...it looks like the wing of a very large moth ? the Atlas Moth. Artistic composition & lighting with superb camera techniques with sharp focus.

Whew!!

Comment from Zilyram
It actually looks like the tip of the butterfly wing - focus is soft (probably due to upload) but colour is good and contrasts well against the blurred background.

Yep, looks like a partial wing of a butterfly. Lovely colours, the close up has intriguing shapes open to interpretation. Well captured and framed.

Comment from Sange
Ha! I do know what this is!
It is The Atlas moth/Attacus atlas. It is a moth that can mimic a shape of a snake or bird.
A Great find of this wicked cool Moth!

Comment from BerryBabe
Is it a bird? My guess is its the tip of a butterfly's wing. Good capture and focus to create the illusion. Nicely presented, framed, balanced and good contrast. Lovely colors. Lighting worked very well for you in this shot.
