The Dung Beetle Hits the Jackpot

At Dalhousie Springs camp ground and playing around with very low level shots again.

Yes this is a cow/camel/goat/emu/kangaroo/human dung heap, shot up close with the camera right on the ground. About the same view the dung beetle would get as he marches up for dinner.

God help the poor human if indeed it is one from him/her!!

Fabulous shot.

I have searched for the dung beetle Poppo but cannot find him :))

[Denise Wood]

You've now reached the jackpot!! First dung photo on 365 :)

@hermann Would have been great if I could have coerced a beetle into appearing in the shot wouldn't it.

[Debbie]

Interesting subject matter. Very nicely composed

[Dianne]

Neat pov.

[Jane Anderson]

I don't know Terry. Something about this shot is sort of crappy.

[Liana Bull]

Reminds me of my grandsons favorite book. "Who flung dung?" Clever pov but I wonder if you scared the dung beetle away?

[ShirleyB]

Good job there are such things as dung beetles to clean this up.

[Denise (lyndemc)]

Thank goodness this site doesn't offer aroma along with the image. What I now want to see if the picture someone else surely took of you taking this photo.

[Poppo Livy]

@kiwinanna Is that the one that was written by Wun Bung Lung?

[Kate Goring]

Ha, ha! This is awesome, love the pov.

Wow, one is never quite sure what one will see on 365. I was curious what keywords you might have used. One of the better dung photos I've seen for sure, but I'm kind of hoping we don't have some kind of theme going here.

What a _ _ _ _ ty shot!! LOL.
