Thick-Legged Flower Beetle Macro Wins 'Photo Of The Week'

A stunning macro shot of a Thick-Legged Flower Beetle, captured by simmo73, has won our ‘Photo of the Week’ (POTW) accolade.

We are captivated by the colours and extraordinary detail in this image. The vivid colours burst with life, drawing the eye to the intricate patterns on the beetle’s carapace. The sharpness of the shot focuses on the fine hairs and the robust limbs of this tiny creature. The macro shot intelligently focuses on the beetle against a blurred backdrop, highlighting its structure. The well-executed lighting brings out the beetle’s intricate features, giving the image a realistic appearance. Simply put; it’s a beautiful capture of a beautiful creature — congratulations on winning POTW!

All of our POTW winners will receive a Samsung 128GB PRO Plus microSDXC memory card with SD adapter offering memory storage across multiple devices. Plus, we will also announce our ‘Photo of the Year’ winner who’ll win a Samsung Portable 1TB SSD T7 Shield in January 2024 courtesy of Samsung.
