Shun from Mühlheim am Main, Germany
This is another great macro! You seem to turn up in the right moments (maybe the wrong moments if you ask your subjects ;-))

We call them "ladybirds" rather than "ladybugs" although I guess bugs is technically more correct than birds - great macro shot - something I've always found so difficult.

It alway's amazes me how many different kinds of ladybugs there are, a great close up shot.

Great macro capture... Seems like they didn't really mind you taking their shot! Ah! One can also see the future result of their acts if one visits the page of another aminus3 colleague here.
