Female (left) and male ox beetles, Arizona. #insects #beetles #Scarabaeidae

Photograph of two robust, very shiny brown beetles standing on a branch in the leaf litter, dark and slightly backlit. The beetle on the right has three forward-pointing horns like a Triceratops.

@alexwild A beautifully lit shot. I always found these black glossy beetles are a bit tough to light and photograph.
