[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
On this particular day at the Wilbur Wright Fish and Wildlife Area, there were untold numbers of beetles coupling in the fields.

I believe these are Japanese Beetles (Popillia japonica).

On the far right edge of this picture you can see where the beetles have begun to eat the leaf.

Muy buen enfoque y profundidad. Los coloreslos veo reales y limpios. Encuadre discutible pero es a gustos. Buena luz.

Excellent lighting, contrast, color, etc. Maybe too much dead space on the left. Nevertheless, very effective. Gary
