Wow,da ist dir wieder eine grandiose Nahaufnahmen gelungen lieber Keith,da kann man richtig glücklich sein,wenn man so einen Garten hat,da kommen die Insekten gleich zu dir heim,grinsss,aber der schöne Käfer passt auch wunderbar zu diesen Blüten,toll hast du die Blüte mit dem Käfer hervor gehoben :))

Wünsche noch einen schönen Nachmittag,ganz liebe Grüße Güni :))

Thanks Güni.........I'm very pleased you like this image. The Feverfew flowers are very popular with the insects, but they are nearly finished flowering.

(But I've still got another couple of photos to post yet)>

mooi bloemtijpijtje Keith

Thanks Fred........glad you like it.

A beautifully composed macro, Keith ! I like the arrangement very much !

A terrific shot Keith. So they feed on flowers then! I have some feverfew next to a log pile, which I think can be where they might emerge from. It's a lovely picture of the beetle and flower, and the bokeh backdrop is superb.

I hope you have a good weekend. It's raining here right now!

Wow as everyone has already said - this is a fantastic shot, Keith. The details you've managed to capture are fabulous, and the beetle looks as if it's tired and is rubbing its back.

Bel insecte assorti aux couleurs des fleurs et un arrière-plan très réussi*******

A beetle in a camouflage jacket! Well seen and beautifully captured Keith
Excellent colours and fine detail, have a great weekend.
