Colours are outstanding especially the way they are arranged in the composition, they create a fantastic contrast to the black beetle. Shaprpess is good as well
Excellent work - a favorite!

Hi Didier,
Difficult light, and with a dark subject and very light surface..But you've handled it well. Sharp detail, with very good DOF, and a great POV. Well composed,
Well done.

Hello Didier, good shot. Nice composition. I think the BG is a little over exposed on the petals and undeexposed on the beetle, a fill flash may have helped here. It's a good colourful composition. Well done.

Hi Didier!
To see Meloe species in such place - it is not easy. Usually they just walking on the ground surface :) Picture is very colourful and interesting, and even if DOF would be a little better (especially if I compare it with your pictures of flying insects which are amazing :>) - I like it.
By the way, just for fun, please see < ahref="http://www.treknature.com/viewphotos.php?l=3&p=102500">here to see similar species, Meloe proscarabaeus :)
Have a vey nice Sunday and Merry Christmas!
