Hi Ganesh,

The luck is seeing these wonderful things - but the pictures all show your awesome skill. These mating ladybugs are superb. Perfect colors, perfect details, perfect background. Wonderful composition on the slightly diagonal stalk.

Excellent macro of these mating Ladybirds :-)
The POV you have chosen is excellent!
Very good DOF and a great BG.
Sharp and crisp.
Excellent detail from the hairs on the stem to a dimple on the ladybird's back.
Well done Ganesh!

Hi Narayanan,
I have just been back from a trip to Shilon Bagh which is another hill station 24 KMs from main Shimla. In Shilon Bagh, all I found in the name of wild life were LadyBirds. None however were as beautiful as compared to what u've been able to capture here, right in the middle of Delhi. These are brighter in color and have more prominent and sharp black spots on them. The quantity of LadyBirds in Shilon Bagh was mind blowing. Will be posting a few sample shots soon :)
Excellent details captured on this one too.

Beautifully shot gorgeous bright red coloured ladybugs in front of smeared out green bg. Also sharply focussed. But I feel it would have been even better if the branch were made totally horizontal, or may be even better, almost diagonal, by cropping the picture. Anyways, great shot.
