I think the picture is very distracting for just making the lady bug stand out... and it seems like the lady bug is a little soft...

Lovely colors. I love the lady. She really takes this out of being another flower image. I'm not excited by the dark corner to the lower right. I wonder if it would be better with a tighter crop from the right and bottom?

Image looks a bit neat-imaged, but that might just be me. Nice angle on the flowers, lovely backlighting. Wish the ladybug was highlighted a bit more.

Nice shot. I might have decreased the contrast to soften it a little, and increase the color saturation.

Gorgeous colour, the lady bug completes it.

She takes a little while to notice, does her ladyship. Mightn't it have been possible to bring her colour out a touch more, without disrupting the realism of this nicely shot scene.

i wonder if this is slightly underexposed or not... the whole shot seems just a shade dark. Lovely composition and framing though.

So close to perfect!!! How many ppl are going to ask why you didnt pinch off the leaf on the left? Lovely suble colors. great back ground, perfect focus. love the diagonal composition, an image that reads right to left, as this one does, is more calming than one that reads right to left - suits the mood! 9

the lady bug is too dark. if the colors would have been brighter, it would have been a higher scoring photo.
