Mini heart

In 2013, I started with a week of hearts around Valentine's Day.
In 2014, I was able to do an entire month of hearts.
So I'm ready again for my February-month of hearts !

I've never noticed before that tiny heart on ladybugs....I think this one was special...a sign ...or may be only french ladybugs have this ;)

Garden of my in-laws, south of France.

Not the usual Ladybird! She might have a different nature. But excellent focus to see her clearly!

Love the detail, I think ladybirds run away when they see me coming!

Great macro. Good catch for your hearts. Did you know they have hearts before you started photographing it? Or was is a nice suprise?

[Corinne]

@oly no I didn't know, it's just when I've downloaded the pictures on my computer that I noticed the heart, I've checked and not all ladybugs have this sort of heart shape dot...I've been lucky ;)

[Stephanie Swift]

Love your focus here, and that little heart on the ladybug.
