Very nice capture of the imposing beetle. Perfect sharpness and very good composition. I love these rather rare and beautiful beetles.

Excellent capture of this giant bettle Didier. Fantastic sharpness and details even in his dark shield. Colours are great and the tight composition is very good.

Brilliant macro, the lighting and exposure are just perfect. Great composition and really good DOF and POV. Sharpness is exceptional.
A very good image.

Great macro, Didier.
Very well exposed, it's very good details in the black.
Well composed and good details.
Great work.

Hi didier, great shot, can't be easy exposing for all that black against the bright yellow of the flower. You've done it well - good details in the Stag Beetle and great colour throughout. Very well done, TFS :)

Hi Didier.

Didier, this is beautiful and sharp. Excellent shapness, great colors and contrast.

I do enjoy composition and pov too.

Congratulations.

Very striking with the black on the yellow, Didier! Composition is strong and puts flower and bug in a strong position.

I go to one shot before the last one Didier,
this is realy nice a good composing shot, fantastic colours, good contrast, great in pov and a fantastic dof, very good job here, my compliments for it,
gr. Jaap

He looks very nice against this bright yellow flower, I love the pink in the background and frame also, makes him look much more dramatic. I haven't seen one of these, we have something as big, the timberbeetle, they always make me shiver! Nicely captured.

Inseto muito interessante, gostei também do enquadramento.

Jolie composition, Didier. Le sujet d'une parfaite netteté ressort admirablement bien sur le jaune de la fleur. Sa texture est superbe. Ce n'est pas mon insecte préféré, mais cela ne m'empêche pas de joindre cette photo à ma liste de photos favorites.
