Beetle on Flower by redfive

Adelaide, South Australia

I was taking a macro of a flower and setting things up when a small black beetle started to crawl from the centre of the flower.
No photoshop except a crop.

I like this picture. It is striking that the light appears to come from inside the flower.

Very nice.
