Description
I found this beetle, of the genus Ceropria, under thick bark on the trunk of a standing dead tree in our local woods the other day. When exposed to the light, its black surface displayed attractive iridescence, so I placed it on the ground where this could best be seen and took a handheld series of focus-bracketed shots. After this, I placed it back on the tree to resume its business.
A really nice stack, Mike. I don’t see any anomolies or out of focus areas. I love the iridescence on the back and you picked a good background for it.
This is a beautiful beetle Mike. Wow, those colors are amazing, and the pattern is really intricate too. Love the pores. Nice BG to make it pop off the page.
Mike, the iridescence really helps this beatle stand out. The fairly uniform colors in the surroundings work well also. Your flash did a great job of showing off the iridescence.
