Ladybird on a stalk

[AndyA]

Taken with my 18-55mm kit lens on auto focus.

It's a little out of focus, I think I must have been a bit too unsteady on my feet.

Re: Ladybird on a stalk

i think for such small creatures shots you really need to get super close and fill the frame (unless of course that was never the intention here). this is where a macro lens comes handy. also not sure what the reddish blobs on the left are - a litte distracting, can be cropped out for a cleaner shot

Re: Ladybird on a stalk

Thanks you. I'm not sure what the red blobs were either, I'll crop them as suggested and see how it looks.
