Fantastic shot

I've not seen many ladybirds around this year, there's usually quite a few on the Honeysuckle in the garden.
Glad to see a nice example on here.

Ken, this is an excellent shot, crispy and sharp, and the green of the leaf helps bringing out the excellent patterns on the little insect
nice one

Great quality picture Ken, especially when it was taken at 800 ISO. There's no sign of noise. Did you use a macro lens?
