Some ladybirds

[LordV]

Few ladybirds around yesterday in the garden- mainly on my car roof.
Last shot is an animation and may take a while to load.

Very interesting animation... curious regarding the number of actual pics it took to create it.

Thanks for the comments :)

John - I used 8 shots in the animation - I did have more but it's a balance of interest and file size.

I like the first pictures very very much

Brilliant lighting control!!! I am always amazed how you could shoot reflective bugs such as ladybirds and dragonflies without getting any hotspots.

Love the animation too!

That animation is killer (pardon pun). Love it! Looks like some of the old film animations like the original King Kong movie etc :)

Great set of pics Brian. Prefer the ones taken on your car, they look so good without any green background. Love the animation too of course lol

Thanks for the comments all :)
Kurt - think the car helps with the reflectivity in these.

I never knew that they were predatory Brian. Excellent shots and animation. :)
