Description I had fun with this ladybug.
Shot indoors.
The setup is a 300D, 100mm macro and a small flash with softbox.
I ran out of freshly recharged batteries otherwishe i could use a bigger flash and softbox.
The bug kept flying away so i tried to get it on picture.
Basicly you have to press the shutter before you see it taking off.
It usualy walks to the highest place first and when she stands still you click.

I think green leaves would complement the ladybird much better, but nevertheless this is a wonderful shot. Well worth the effort
