I've seen a great variety of Ladybirds but I don't ever remember seeing one like this, are they common?
CombineZM always seemed to work OK in XP but since I've upgraded (and I use the term loosely) to Vista I get distortion down the left side and along the bottom. I've downloaded the latest version and even sized the shots smaller but it still does it, any one else having any problems in Vista (CombineZM related that is).

LOvely shot :)
The distortion you see is nothing to do with the OS- combinezm adds a border around the pics and depending on the alignment of the shots this may get significant- you just need to crop it off.

I only see a few of these each year in my park but they are certainly not scarce.
