This is a great image. I love lady bugs and you have captured this one beautifully.
Excellent focus. Amazing detail. Wonderful color. I love the contrast in the red lady bug against the green foliage.
Really well done. Greta informative write up as well.
I need a lot of them to put in my sunflower bed. Something is eating the leaves.
Thank you for sharing this great image.
Good luck in the contest. A very nice entry!

Very good entry for the contest. Excellent close up of the little Ladybird climbing along the leaf. I like the plain green background. Very good lighting and focus showing excellent clarity. Great composition. Good luck in the contest. Suzanne

This lacquer-shelled lady bug is the cat's pajamas! Your focus is perfect and the angle is interesting. I have tried and failed many times photographing this tiny bug so really appreciate your success in showing us how it should look!

A beautiful shot. The detail in the insect is amazing and I like the shine on his wing covers. Great composition and outstanding colors. It should be a tough one to beat in this contest.
