ID: Beetle and Ant

Spotted this interesting sight of a mating beetles, along a trail at Matheran. Though the area was surrounded with dense greenery and leaves popping in either in the background or foreground, eventually managed to keep distraction away from the foreground and just as I was about to capture the frame an ant popped in from nowhere and, kinda sorta, Photobombed...

Nice details on the beetles. The narrow aperture has helped. Even if the ant gate crashed , it is not distracting or bothered by the beetles . Thanks for sharing.

Very nice. The ant doesn't care about the action going on in the leaf.
