Hi Elena ! I don't know the English name of this bug, but it's latin name is Cetonia aurata. I have a lot of them in my garden. They eat flowers but they are also very useful as they spread pollen from flower to flower.
This is a very nice shot, with excellent details, colors and composition. The metallic color of the bug is amazing. very well done !

for me it is a cetonia cuprea. nice shot, good sharpness
NO: that's right: it is perhaps a cetonia aurata, sory.

Congratulations Helena and thanks for sharing.

Hi Elena, great macro shot. That beetle is a lovely green colour. Great details in both the flower and the beetle with good lighting and colours. Well composed and TFS.

Hi Elena,
A very good control of exposition, where the white flower and the metallic bug are fine.
TFS, José M.

Bugs like this are flying all summer in my village.
The older villagers call them gold flyies because the bugs are shining by the sun
Breautiful macro and nice composition
