My own moon

Description

I really love this pic, for some reason, I always wondered why the butterflies are attracted to light.

It is known that the moths define their path through for the position of the moon and the magnetic field of the land, since the moon is very far, is a good point of reference to mark the course, this lunar light makes them fly higher and this enables them to avoid obstacle and predators (and photographers ;P) as well as take advantage of the air currents, it is as if they had a compass internally.


Btw, happy new year everyone, I wish you all a wonderful year <3

To me, the light bulb, being a mundane thing symbolizes the primal realm of existence. The natural world. With the beings seeking the truest form of themselves hoping to transcend to a higher plain, ergo, the butterfly being drawn to it, despite it not being as magnificent a thing as it dreams but it continues to stay close.

The butterfly stuck within the glass is like the transparent wall of coincidence, that is to say, there is no fate, but that our lives are all housed by our character. We have our individual personalities that guides our actions, if say, there was an opening in the light fixture it could be said there is fate but there isn't.

The outside portion would represent the other possible forms of existence in this realm. They shall remain a mystery, being what we are, we can never understand the being of what we are not, but we may observe and wonder.

Yeah this is my first shot at being a Critique not sure its of any value or form but i merely followed what others have exampled.
