For this blue metallic shimmering beetle I have found the english name "Aspen Leaf-rolling Weevil". | Der blau metallisch schimmernde Käfer gehört zur Familie der Blattroller und dürfte ein Rebenstecher sein. |

Unfortunately, I have not come so close, and whenever I wanted to photograph him from the front, the little rascal has turned away and then finally fled. | Ich bin leider auch nicht so nahe herangekommen, und immer, wenn ich ihn von vorne fotografieren wollte, hat er sich der kleine Schlingel weggedreht und ist dann schlussendlich auch geflüchtet. |

Thank you very much for resteeming my post, dear @pixresteemer 😊
This beetle stole a piece of sky and carries it always with you, greedy beetle)) Excellent macro photography, my Dear friend @Johannpiber! You have found a great perspective for shooting. I see the second object of macrophotography, no less remarkable. This beautiful fly, perfectly balances the fourth photograph.
Good evening to you, my friend!
I have seen this fly at home when I looked through the photos ;) ... but both insects together, even when the fly is blurred, make a nice image composition by accident, I have to agree :)
Thank you, my friend @barski, your comment is unique and nice, as always. I wish you a good evening and night too :)
Der schaut ja wirklich klasse aus auf der gelben Blüte. Deine Marcos sind perfekt gelungen und gefallen mir sehr gut!
Danke dir vielmals @faltermann, es war eine blöde Situation wegen einem Strauch, zwischen dessen Ästen die Blumen herausgewachsen sind und ich nicht wirklich gut zum Käfer gekommen bin, ohne dass alles gewackelt hat ;)
Toll erwischt auch wenn er sich immer weggedreht hat. Das kommt mir irgendwie bekannt vor 😊

Danke dir, und das war wirklich so. Ich wollte den Käfer auch nicht stören oder ärgern und von der Blüte nehmen, und leider waren die Blüten bei einem Gebüsch und ich konnte nur von zwei Seiten einigermaßen dazu 😊
Gut gemacht, Fotos sind toll 👍

Danke dir, @obsesija, schönen Abend noch :)
He looks like a Bob to me or maybe a Steve. LOL. Serioulsy some fantastic macro shot, Johann:)
Yes, @prydefoltz, Bob would match, I think. When I meet this nice little guy next time I will call him "Bob". Maybe he does not turn around then when I try to photograph him from the front 😉
Thank you very much for this nice comment 😊
@johannpiber love the metallic appearance of the beetle.

Thank you @solominer, the blue shine came out better than I thought :)
Wow super shots. What a great colours on the beetle.
Thank you so much @tijntje, the colors came out really nice :)
I wonder how close you are to the object when photographing such a lens?
I am sorry, but I do not remember - I think, about 40-50cm. I could have gone closer with the 105mm macro, but because of bushes around the flower I couldn't. This is, why I had to crop the images so much.
Well, that's a pretty good distance. I have to poke my lens almost in the nose of a beetle
That's the advantage of the longer lenses, and the Sigma is not so much more expensive than your EF-M 28mm ;)
