Comment from Adelay
Was this done by hand? Or photographed and edited? Very detailed if not photoshopped. Good work! Your friend, Adelae!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Adelae,
Thanks a million for your complementary review on this pair of Ladybirds mating on the tip of a Nettle leaf. I used Corel Paintshop Pro 2020 to edit the picture. To magnify the image & frame it. I then added the text to tell you what you were viewing.

Comment from supergold
as inferred from the black spots on their body, it seems there are two different species; good framing but focus a bitv too soft;.............

Fred,
Merci beaucoup mille fois for your complementary review on this pair of copulating Two Spot Ladybirds/ Coccinelle on the tip of the leaf. Below is a rather blurred Aphid.
The photo was taken one handed as I had to bend the top of the Nettle over with my left hand (hoping not to get stung) to get them in the frame & there was also quiet a breeze moving the Nettles.
