It's so interesting the way these guys clump together so tightly on the flowers, even when they aren't mating. I have been seeing a lot of them where I live. I like the way the leaves look after they have been feeding on them and that you have some of the lacy designs in this shot.

A rather terrifying scene especially for a gardener. The composition is attractive and I like the sheen of the beetles. The focus is a bit soft but the colors are excellent.

oh, they are horrible creatures, eating my roses in the garden. Very good composition and clear shot. Reminds me that not only butterflies exist in this world :) Thanks for sharing
