Very creative imagination. lol (Reminds me of the guys I work with...they'd catch flying bugs and superglue a string to them and then attach them to their toolboxes. You'd walk into the hangar and see all these bugs flying around in circles and had to laugh.)
Congratulations on your blue ribbon. A great capture! I am glad they were already dead, though. :)

It's a very cool picture, but I must admit I would have been disappointed had I voted for a ribbon and then read about the superglue afterwards. A great idea for sure, but not a real capture of nature, no?

I used a pair of tweezers under the ladybugs wings to hold them up and then used the superglue under the wings to get them to stay. It took a while for the glue to dry so I was walking around the house with it. A strange site you can imagine! Getting this one to sit on top of the heap was the hardest part. He kept falling to the ground and getting the positioning correct was difficult but perserverence paid off.

Your picture has such understated beauty. It really looks like a beautiful old painting. The water is lovely and so are the colors. The sky is so nice and muted looking.
