Understated, graceful, fine composition and perfectly punctuated by this complementary ladybug. Cheerful and serene, what a way to greet the day every day.
Personal favorite of the challenge.

I like the idea ( I love pictures of ladybugs (Asian beetles)). I would have suggested cropping a little tighter, trying to brighten the green in the background, and more DOF on the plant that the beetle is on. I realize that oftentimes these shots are controlled by nature!

Comment by streetpigeon:
Very artful, ghostly and dramatic. Breathtaking, even. Once I go beyond how very much I like this image, it gets a bit confusing. One might suppose that this is a moonlight effect, or is it helped along by additional lighting? Is it important? Not a botanist, but it does look like Queen Anne's lace, which I don't believe is cultivated in traditional gardens, along with additional grasses. So am I angling for strict correspondance of title and image, and once again, is it important? Am I wrong about all my suppositions? Well, it's at an impasse by now.
Another thing I like about this image is that it's personal and particular, in keeping with the "at least by me" aspect of the challenge.
At the end of the road, this is my personal favorite of the challenge.
