Beetles are awesome. Especially when covered in pollen and sitting inside of a flower. I think today was the first day I was finally feeling pretty comfortable with the new camera, although macro photography is really what I have the best luck with in general. today, I toted a flash out with me and my tripod to hold it, so I lit all these shots. It was too overcast to use natural light and get good depth of field anyway. Slowly but surely, I am improving my macro photography game. I really like this shot a lot.
