 Our front porch has been bombarded with ladybugs so I choose one and put it in the freezer. This one in particular one just happened to closely match PMS1395C.

At first my eyes were really drawn to wondering what this photo was until I scrolled down and saw the lady bug. IMO- I might have personally cropped off more of the top of the photo, so my eyes weren't immediately drawn to the words, but I really like the idea. It is very different!

Funny that she chooses exactly her colour - no, wait. Did you put her there?

She really does match well doesn't see. The concept is great, but the image isn't quite popping. I don't know what would make it pop though.

Nice color match. I think the focus could have been more on the ladybug, or else the entire shot.

Original idea! Needs the 1395 description in focus. You could crop this to square with the ladybug entering the frame, just showing 1395 and part of 1385.

Great capture, perfect for this challenge-you have a good eye for colour. Focus is a bit suspect though

I hate it when I get bugs on my paint. Very clever, its a shame your focus isn't on the bug
