cool picture I did'nt think a ladybug looked like that lol (when so close) nice tho, its hard to get close up to such a small object that is probably afraid of you anyway so good job on that too.

thanks very much, this one was particularly interested in hiding on me every time I would try to take a picture

Very cute. The ladybug was shot at a perfect angle, and you got well rounded color in this one. Awsome job.

Ohhh pretty ladybug!
It is very hard sometimes to take their picture ... I've had the same problem in the past

Well, this was my first attempt at capturing an insect. I think most of the fault lay in my camera. The ladybug was patient for a little while and I would have had ample time to get a good picture, but my camera kept taking itself out of focus (yes, it took itself out of focus... I hate this camera, it either has a mind of its own or there is something seriously wrong with it). Then, the ladybug suddenly got camera-shy when it realized me trying to take its picture was a lost cause.

Sounds like your camera is haunted or something...

i love the colors so much! The balance in the composition of the picture is just right, too. Very nice job.

Thanks, but I don't know. I think it is unbalanced and there is just something I don't like about this picture.

...and that damn ladybug was not helping either; jumping off the petals and hiding and such.

Well, better luck next time, then, but i think it looks fine. Don't be too picky with your peices or you will end up with an over-worked look.
