beetle colors


I found a beetle on the ground outside.
I looked if it was still alive, because it did not move.
I was n't.
I accidentally turned it over.
Beautiful shimmering shiny purples and blues on his belly and legs...so surprising all these colours!,
while his shield on the top-side was just dark greyish black.

The photos are stunning. At first I thought they were paintings. That's what I strive for. That place where my photos look like paintings.
