I got lucky to find a ladybug this time of the year. Taken in a studio on a gerbera daisy. No refrigeration or anything, just let him crawl around and shot him where he went.

I love insects and I love this type of photography. Nice timing by both of you.
Technically this shot is flawless. I didn't see this during voting, and I voted on over 50% of the entries, but it would've garnered a 9 for sure.
Jason, you and ladybugs have a special connection for producing winner images. Only the best ones can go to the backyard and return with a winning image. Great shot & congrats on the TOP result.
I find this shot infinitely more interesting that the blue - it's a bit of a shame that originality doesn't register higher with voters. Grats on another ribbon for your collection.
Congrats DOC....another well deserved ribbon. I always enjoy seeing what you come up with, places you go to shoot etc.......I think I am stalking you. LOL
AAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! Six places higher than me! LOL... I knew you'd win. Congrats on your ribbon and high score... go win the Enzo tournament!
Nice composition, colors and textures. A bit more dark in the upper right than I like but that's a nit pic. It's red. So it's my pick for the red!!!
Congrats.
Beautiful! I really like the diagonal lines the petals bring to the composition and the details in the petal tips too. The inclusion of that dark corner echoes the black spots and body parts of the ladybird just as the petals echo the red of the wing casing. Really nice image.
Very beautiful, the angles and the lights makes this a very interesting composition. The sharpness in the image is great and the details are fabulous. Great work
I really like the softness that you have captured in this picture. Red can be a very harsh colour, but here it just seems warm and inviting. very crisp and clean and a simply wonderful macro, the ladybird is brings this out so well, well done, 10
