 Hardest part was getting the lady bug to stay put. Kept falling off the \"whisker\" Yes it is dead! Had to find one in in reasonable condition in the window sills. We still have snow.

Greetings from the Critique Club

...and with your score, you only ended up 29th out of 140. Sometimes there is no justice.

Forgive me if I don't spend too much time attempting to critique your splendid image. It is just fine; composition works, technicals spot on, lady bug - not red, can't have everything. Especially if you scooped her off the windowsill.

Keep up the good work and you'll achieve your goals soon.
