Excellent shot. Looks sharp enough to me. Difficult to get dof on ladybirds and this angle works perfectly.

I like the contrast between focus plane and non-focus background.

I know from experience that as stated by Dr Orloff above, taking macros of ladybirds is very difficult indeed. I think this shot ticks all the boxes and works really well.
