#4 Flowers and answer(s)

I'm very glad that many of you like my photos and also that there is so much of you :D
In comments, few people asked what equipment do I have, someone told that is has to be something expensive. No, I use Canon Powershot A580, with no additional lenses. But I must tell you that I use also homemade diffuser so my photos look more professional ;)
Someone else asked where these photos were taken- in Poland. All of them. And all uploaded in the future will be from my homeland ;)

Today, I want to show you some flowers:




And now, answer to yester question. Two people were close, telling that it's beetle. It's larva of Coccinella septempunctata, also know as a the seven-spot ladybird. Photo of imago form (on flower, as the headline says):

Fighting with one of its enemy, for food (and the food is Aphid, next time I'll show you some of them). You even can see me on its armor:

  7. As a kid I've always enjoyed the sight of a ladybug. I think I might've kept one as a pet before too...

    On topic though, those flowers look absolutely beautiful.

  9. Wow! I'm impressed you got these shots with the point-and-shoot camera like a Powershot. I have one myself, and you've inspired me even more to try photography as a hobby.

    Keep it up!

  10. Point and shoot cameras are pretty nifty, and can be quite good. Mine is not particularly brilliant, but it does pick up a lot of detail. Keep up the good pictures :D
