Very nice macro work.

Excellent macro shot of the ladybird Pete. The detail and body colours are terrific. I am not too sure about the background colour, it doesn't look like it's natural surroundings, although it does isolate the subject well. Was it a green tinted glass table top or something similar? Good work.

very good macro shot. I agree with Steve about the background, a bit of a clash with the ladybird I think. I wondered what it was until I read your description! Smile

An excellent shot with very good detail. I would have preferred a more natural looking background, but the ladybird obviously was happy where he was lol.

Nice one
