Artist's Comments

After about 20 minutes of chasing some dragonflies around, I finally said "screw it" and went to shoot something that couldn't fly away. While shooting some flowers I found one that had this beetle on it.

Excellent shot! The color and clarity are both very nice and I like the composition as well. Only thing is the leaf in the upper corner is a bit distracting, not that it ruins this. You could probably even take it out in photoshop or PSP quite easily.

Thanks! If you do get into photography, be careful, it's very addicting!

Thanks alot! And thanks for pointing out the leaf in the corner, I was so busy making sure the beetle looked OK I never really paid attention to that. I'll see what I can do about getting rid of that.

I can identify with this XD Trying to get a photo and then BOOM! it's gone. >> Stupid birds.

That's a cool beetle, on an interestingly placed flower.

Lovely. It's so clear and beautifully composed. The details almost look painted. I love the expression on the beetle / weevil's face.

Thanks, glad you like it!
