Gérard,
The mystery deepens.
The blue colour in the first picture is much like that of a filter to correct tungsten light to daylight. As you had the tungsten setting on your camera, any white light would have become blue.
The flash image, on the other hand, shows some of the warm colours I would expect from uncorrected, or partially corrected , tungsten lighting. (This image keeps disappearing).
I note that the colour of the background follows the shift in colour of the beetles. If it is the same background in each case that provides further information about colour balance.
It remains that you initial image is very striking in composition, texture and colour.

My images are a medium for sharing some of my experiences: they are not me.
