Thanks Dan!
I photographed this beetle in the wild for a few minutes before capturing it. The pose was selected based on what I had observed of natural behaviour.

Another great one, Jostein!

I particularly like the posture of the beetle and, of course, the level of
detail.

This one is a pollen eater as an adult, the larvae live under the bark on
dead twigs of various trees. Its wasp mimicry is not limited to colours, it
even buzz at the same frequency as wasps during flight.

645D, FA 120/4 macro, stacked from 165 exposures.

On the post-processing side, I tried "slabbing" or sub-stacking this time.
Some extra work, but I'm quite happy with the end result.
