There's no reason as to why a ladybird should have appeared in the darkness of my garden this late in September - but none the less, there she was, as I was out looking for spiders...

Just to set the scene - after finding her and taking the first photos where I spotted her - the resulting images against a deep dark black background from using flash at night was not overly appealing to me, so I decided to create a quick outdoor studio by plucking the leaf where she was standing, relocating it, and adding a printed background to match her colours.

By moving the card and changing the light position, aperture, and ISO, creates small differences to the various image results.

I'm no David Attenborough, but enjoy it if you can (and excuse my Lancashire accent!)



These are the edits:
