    Superb ladybug capture. Can even see it eating. Your camera has a great close-up setting to achieve this much magnification.

    Hello again, I'm glad you like that little mariquita. The truth is, despite its limitations, my little camera allows me to have a great time chasing bugs and discovering all those little details around us. And part of the fun is doing a Google image search afterwards to identify what you find. And you always learn something. For example, the daisy is not a single flower, but an inflorescence:

    A day when I don't learn something is a day wasted.
    I didn't know daisies were an inflorescence. Thank you.

    Nice capture, you did a good job despite that tricky light.
    And speaking of hair, there's a saying around here that says that where there's hair, there's joy 😁
