Heterorrhina sexmaculata

Shiny beetles are so difficult to photograph! Ugh!

**I have a fairly large collection of natural curiosities and decided to share some on JungleDragon. I have been collecting bits of nature for years and also have many friends who have shared things with me. Everything in my collection was ethically collected/harvested/sourced and is cruelty-free.

  Thanks, it is! I am going to read up on how to take photos of shiny creatures and try again. Maybe better, more diffuse light would help. Posted 4 years ago

    That's exactly the solution: the bigger diffusion surface, the better in this case. Posted 4 years ago
