Apparently this beetle came over to Canada from Europe, where I understand it is fairly common.  I has become a bit more common here in the right locations.  This is about 80 frames stacked in Helicon Focus. Please click on image to view full size.

Remarkable details Tim, even to the "guest" bug. Fab!

Looks so otherworldly, great details and iridescence, Tim. I also like that the beetle was joined by his little friend.

Looks like a creature from a scary movie! Excellent resolution and detail. It's little friend looks a bit more friendly. ;)

The little hitch hiker is really cool here.
