Ssssh! I'm trying to blend in!

As I was heading back to check on Sir Squintley, I saw this beautiful beetle. I don't know what he is, or what he does, but he stayed very still while I took his picture.

I just love the way he is looking out at you. Great shot.

[Laetitia Petrussa]

Yep... I almost can't see him at all! Great shot getting the shimmer in there!

Really pops on black. Such fine, lovely detail.

@helenhall Thank you so much! He has beautiful eyes.

@laetitiapetrussa I think if he had been on the mint, rather than on the loquat leaf, I wouldn't have seen him. Thank you!

@bkbinthecity Thank you very much!

@30pics4jackiesdiamond Thank you very much!

@cmsch52 Thank you for your kind words!

@islambad Thank you so much!

@joysabin Thank you very much! He would have been a good subject for a focus stacking series I think since he wasn't moving at all.
