1st attempt at a ladybug

[munkie]

today i noticed about 10 ladybugs on my car, so I decided to grab my camera and macro lens and give it a shot.

Your C&C will be a great help to me so please to leave comments.

Not bad at all for a first attempt

pretty good! Sometimes a diffused light can help with the reflections but ladybirds are hard lol!

Nice pics!

thanks for the comments guys/girls

I did use a diffuser on my flash gun, but my car is a metallic blue.

It was very hard, the silly buggers wouldnt stay still

I like these.............contrasting colours and nice reflections

neat capture bud, nice detail

Nice. Like the contrast with the deep blue.

Hope they didn't secrete that yellow stuff. That would mess up the paint!

p.s. Are you American? Just curious as you call them ladybugs not ladybirds

Nope im pure geordie mate, its just what my daughter (3) calls them and it sounds better IMO
