 It feels like I'll never ribbon again...

Thanks for the comments. I originally had just taken a picture of the pea sprouts, but later when I was weeding I found this little guy and let her crawl around while wrangling her with a little stick.

Great composition, color, focus, action. It has "setting" too which is my complaint about most closeups in this category.

nice focus. its hard to get such accurate focus with such small DOF on a moving bug. decent composition as well so the image is interesting.

Nice dof and contrast between the ladybug and green sprout. The red border is competing with the ladybug though its trying to pull my eyes away from the subject. 8
