Actias luna
This was the first time I has seen a Luna Moth. I gently picked it up and snapped the photo of it on my finger with a macro lens. It is still one of the coolest Luna Moth pictures I have been able to find on the Internet. Hope you enjoy it!

Thanks for clarifying - it is a wonderful photo indeed!
Done @ Karen.
@ Nopayahnah: This is my photo I took with my camera at my house :) When I mentioned finding a cooler picture of this on the Internet, I meant my picture here is among the best I have been able to find ;)
Is this your photo? If it is someone else's photo you found on the Internet, you need their permission to post it here.
OK Karen I will. I'll be a Noah pro one day, just bare with me!!
Very cool!
Charles, where you know the common name of the species as in this case, please could you look up & add the scientific name - it is very easy to do on a Google search. That takes the spotting out of the "unknown" list. The scientific name is Actias luna.
