Hi Binu
Nice ladybird shot. Like the diagonal positioning of the leaf. F10 is aking a bit at this magnification. F16 or 18 would have given you a bit more "crunch ", but of course would mess up your shooting speed. You might get away with 40th sec though.
Try using your flash synced with daylight - sometime produces exiting results . Don't ask me why !!
Any way nice little shot.
Cheers
John

I like the composition and the colours. Whilst flash is often useful I think in this particular case it would have possibly produced undesirable highlights on the glossy surface of the ladybird.

Hi Binu and welcome to the Macro forum! The beetle is giving you a nice pose and you have good sharpness and DOF. I also like the diagonal of the comp and the clean background. This is a strong image and I hope to see more of your work here in Macro!
