This is a repost and 100% crop of an earlier shot I posted of this ladybird.

Just wondering if this is a better composition, and how the quality looks due to the heavy crop.

Thanks

Parm

IQ doesn't look too bad at all for a crop, composition is reasonably good as well. Not quite super sharp on the eyes, but pretty close. I'm also seeing a blueish tint to the black sections at the front of the ladybird, could be my monitor though.

Hi Dave,

Thanks for commenting. The bluish tinge appears to be a reflection of the diffused flash. I should go back and close it out I guess.

Best wishes

I like it. I like the composition of this shot...The perspective from the front of the little guy really catches my attention...

I would say the bluish tint is mainly because the colours in general are oversaturated. It gives the picture a poster effect, which is not unpleasant in itself provided that is what you intended, but it isn't natural.
