Description

This is the same fern that I had published a few days ago. This frame was captured that day on that very same place. I was lucky enough to capture this oversized ladybird beetle in such a dramatic position. In fact this composition forced me to choose the title. A very common object looked at from a different viewpoint.
The original settings are : Lens Nikkor AF-DX 18-55 mm lens, Aperture F/8, Shutter speed 1/80 Sec handheld, ISO 200 at -1 step exposure.

Exif: F Number: 8, Exposure Bias Value: -1, Exposure Time: 10/800, Flash: flash fired, ISO: 200, White Balance: manual white balance, Focal Length: 55mm, Camera Model: NIKON D40
