  1. Stunning! Especially with the little waterdrops on the ladybird. Love this photo! Posted 12 years ago
  2. I did not notice the drops at first glance, I love the very selective lighting used over here. Transparancy where needed, contrasting darkness combined. Love it. Posted 12 years ago

Coccinella septempunctata is the most common ladybird in Europe. Its elytra are of a red colour, but punctuated with three black spots each, with one further spot being spread over the junction of the two, making a total of seven spots, from which the species derives both its common and scientific names.
