I think they are Chinese ladybugs – very pretty but a bit different from the native species, and they can be many of them. Hope all is well. k.

I thought perhaps it was a ladybug jumping from 24 miles above the earth. Very cool pics. I have heard an old wives tale that the spots on a lady bug tell its age–no idea if its true.

Thanks! I thought it was such a cool picture. Almost accidental. I’m pretty interested in photographing bugs somehow.
I don’t think the spots thing is true, but don’t know. k.

I really like the first shot best. I tend toward taking closeups in the first place. But here, the only splash of color against the dark hues is the small bit of red. In this case, I enjoy the way the ladybug “interacts” with the environment.

Me too. I also like first best as the car hood is very mysterious. K.

I just saw the first pic’ when it opened up – thought for a sec’ that it was another dare devil jump from space! Thanks for this one.

I like the third crop -where ladybug is largest. She becomes more the main character of the mysterious picture story. I think the dot=age thing has been debunked- their lifespan is something like 2-4 years. Nice details on this dotty one.
