Kathy- Good day neighbor. I love doing ladybug pictures. There is something about this much beloved insect that seems to make anyone with a camera in their hands want to take a picture of it.
Outstanding presentation with sensational lighting and crystal clear clarity. So sharp. Fabulous POV and DOF. Composition is outstanding.
I love the contrast of the red of the ladybug and the green of the leaves. Sure makes the little thing stand out.
Marvelous definition of the ladybug and her cure features. Colors are bright and rich.
This is excellent work
Have yourself a most marvelous day, take care,enjoy #6071524
