I decided to publish a series on the ladybird, on one hand because it is an insect that very appreciated by all, but especially that I have the luck to accommodate and to observe in my lawn, an incredible quantity of specimens.

Special dedication to Peter: "Batu" who in a subject on the subject.

I hope that you will appreciate

I continue to perform the play of five acts, one act per day, every day.


Part II : The larva is henceforth fixed to a stalk of plant or a herb, it begins its transformation towards the chrysalis.

Hello Gaetan,
Great sharpness and color contrast. I like this pov and composition. The simple blurred background is perfect in highlighting the larva.
