Nice little story behind this: I was walking home when I looked down and noticed this little guy on my shirt, so I walked carefully home, and got the camera out. The ladybug flew into the air and walked along the roof, making it hard for me (we have a very high roof). So I stuck the camera on the tripod and set a ten second timer to take 10 shots, then I held the tripod up as high as I could, and waited for the timer to run out. I used flash, and a 1/500 shutter speed (only way to avoid blur when you're in such an uncomfortable position). So, here you have it: Ladybug on my roof!

Nice ladybug. Did not know you had them in NZ.

A long time ago I had lots of gear - now I make do with one camera & one lens.

Yup, You are Addicted. Excellent Effort. I've never seen one with these markings. Now you have to go back with a ladder and climb on the roof.
