Description
This is what I believe is a green june beetle. My yard is infested with them. They are big and fly around in swarms which is very annoying. I decided I might as well make the best of it and get some pics.

Thanks for looking
Have a good one

Muito bom exemplo de macro fotografia,trabalho bem realizado,gostei bastante!!! Very good example of macro picture, job well done, quite liked!!! (translate by Google)
Cool shot Wendy! Excellent
Now that I am looking at the photo displayed here, I wonder if it would look better with a closer crop around the bugs head??
Great macro!
He's smiling at you! Actually, aren't these Japanese beetles? I had a lot of these when I lived in Virginia. I might have cropped just below his lower legs, but I also like the blur-out of the bottom of the shot. Great macro!
You are one heck of a macro photographer Wendy .. this is amazing. The detail you captured! Hope you are doing well; haven't talked to you in ages :( My son is now in College .. pursuing his education in electrical Engineering. :) Hope its going good for you.. ((HUGS))!!
So stunning macro!
Excellent, detailed shots
Excel macro:):):)
Wonderful!
Excellent detail and color. You could crop it closer but this adds more depth. Good to see you upload again.
wow wendy ,what a cracking shot .the colours and detail are perfect :o) mick
Oh la la ! nothing to crob, Wendy Such a good macro ! Brilliant in full size ( zoom into ) Maybe it's a " Diochrysa fastuosa" or a "Cetonia aurata" both they're lived for april to august, they like leaves, pollen and females lay in trunks ( old trunck they prefere) If that could give you happiness : that "beetle" was a god in Antique Egypt It simbolised the creativity and the sens of look-out Piet also posted a dark "scarabée" a week ago I posted also one in 2006 but less beauty than yours Amitiés q:) Magali
