ursula: this is natural unless it's DrAchoo. there's nothing natural about shoving a dead ladybug across a window.

scalvert: refrigerated ladybug.

ursula: oh, I forgot a DrAchoo fan was here. Well there's nothing natural with torturing a ladybug across a window, either.

scalvert: well, it's not DrAchoo.

ursula: that's a relief. I get enough torture on the 6 o'clock news.

I think you have a neat photo here. I like the composition. My only quip is on technique. The bug on the ledt is quite a bit darker than the others. Is that because the light is falling off towards the intersection of the window frames, or because of different exposures in the frames. I am not at liberty to see the Exif, so I can't tell. I also see some haloing around a couplf the bugs that I assume is from the blending of the images.

Overall I really do liek the photos, especially the comp, but I don't think it is the strongest in the challenge, so I am giving it a 7.

Neat shot. There is a glow around the front few ladybugs which seems a bit unnatural.
