The Matte black beauty

ID: Beetle(Appreciate exact ID of the beauty)

Spotted this beauty along the trail a Matheran, it seemed to have taken refuge on a leaf, but was hardly moving and wasnt at all bothered by our presence. The matte finish kinda body of it drew me towards it and was really amazing to observe it

Good details and composition. The green background helps it to stand out. Thanks for sharing.

Interesting. Reminds me of the matte prints of our photographs. When did you click it?
