You know what, Alan? It would have been a boring shot, were it not for the incredible amount of detail contained in it. It allowed me to stare at it for quite a while, at first just marvelling at the detail in and of itself, and then, actually looking at the bug itself, it's little antennae, tiny legs and feet, etc.

Were it not as tack sharp as it was, it would have been just ordinary. But as you presented it, it rose above the mundane (how pompous does that sound? just came out that way, can't change it now... <g>).

cheers,
frank

Thx Frank! Though I feel the shot is rather... boring... somehow... (the right word?)
In fact, I took the shot by pure luck. Just when I was outside my house to test the 33WR, 2, not 1, ladybirds landed right in front of me. And no matter what I did, they just would not go away even I stuck the camera right above them (thx to the rubber corners). I could only conclude that they wanted me to photograph them, and so I did. :-)
