A bug for the 'Bugman'... by vignouse

A bug for the 'Bugman'...

... this is for Keith @kporte , thank you for all the encouraging comments and the inspiration that your amazing shots have given me to try this modest offering. (My prayers are with you at this difficult time.)

As always, viewing large is worth the effort...
Wonderful capture. I love ladybugs. Great macro.

Great detail Richard! Lighting is great, these can be hard to shoot because of the shiny, reflective surface. Thanks for the kind words too!

@kporte I found that out the hard way: I had shot about 100 images in the garden, all using natural light, but I noticed that the hover-fly in my main album was looking a bit dull, so I decided to use the ring-flash. When I came back from the house, the hover-fly was gone, replaced by the ladybird... I only saw the reflections in post when it was too late to turn the flash off.

@vignouse it's unavoidable really if you want the dof and clarity and I think it looks good anyway as it highlights the shiny shell!
