Intimacy with Insects: lady bug

Intimacy with the subjects you photograph makes the whole activity warm and memorable.

I was photographing this lonely lady bug (ya thought of giving some company) …

.. and it flew on to my white jacket and started climbing up so close to the camera that I could get only one shot of it

So I could get two contrasting buggy shots of the same subject in different environments
