Guten Morgen Dietrich,
ein wunderschön vergrößertes Exemplar diese blau-schillernden Käfers mit den für Fotografen
so schwer zu 'bewältigenden' dunklen und zugleich glänzenden Oberflächen.
Die Körperunterseite sowie die Beinstrukturen - inkl. der Klauen - sind überzeugend dargestellt.
Beste Grüße,
Peter

Hallo Dietrich
This one is just going one way, and that is to my favourites. A delightful, metallic coloured beetle. I actually had to put on my sunglasses looking at this photo. It is so bright and shiny, but oh so pretty. A real feast for the eye. I think you have outdone yourself with this macro. A lovely close-up portrait, with clear details. You were really very lucky capturing this beetle in this position. Just proof that being at the right place at the right time, is a huge advantage for any photographer. I think it is stunning and this photo really made my day. Thanks for sharing and enjoy your day.
Kind regards
Anna

Ciao Dietrich,
non è facile fotografare questi coleotteri così lucidi.
Tu sei riuscito ad evitare fastidiosi riflessi.
La visione laterale permette di osservare in tutti i particolari questa bella specie di Chrysomela.
Grazie,
Marcello

Hallo Dieter!

Dieses Bild verdient wirklich den grünen Favoritenstern. Es ist eine wahre Augenweide, auch für mich als Laien bezüglich Insekten. Die Farben sind prächtig, die Details eindrücklich und die Erklärungen lehrreich.

Ich denke gerne an unseren Abend zurück und wünsche dir eine gute Woche.

Grüessli

Markus

Hello Dietrich!
This is a very nice capture of chrysomelid beetle. Once again you showed not only interesting object (even if common in the field - rare on TN). Technique is really very good, you kept in right way sharpness, DOF, details and light.
I like also note, maybe not very long, but still informative :)
Best greetings and all the best!

Hello Dietrich,
Amazing macro image with razor sharp details and exquisite color. This bug has little grappling hooks for grip. Fantastic work Dietrich.

Buen captura Dietrich, y más desde tan cerca. Estas Chrysolinas son complicadas a veces para captarlas, por su textura y color, pero resolviste bien.Algún reflejo extra, pero todo no puede ser jeje. Buen encuadre y elegante conjunto.

Hey Dietrich,
I think this is excellent all the way round..
I don't do workshops anymore, gave it up. But I would "consider" a zoom in, and a bit of patchwork to minimize the flash glare at the edges??
