Outtake for "Best of 2011"
This is eye candy due the processing but in reality an easier shot to get than the one I entered:


Dung Beetle (Scarabaeus viettei) or MechWarrior
Someone on FB suggested I call it "Dung Warrior" LoL.
Followed him and his Mrs (that's her clinging on for dear life below him) around for about an hour on my hands, knees, heels and elbows...
I thought the sepia would add a nice brown tinge to it, you know, like the poop, to make it stand out from the crowd...thanks Topaz Labs

Taken with a Sigma 100-300mm f/4 EX HSM - Who needs a 100/105mm f/2.8 Macro :)
