I found a lonely Lady Bug a few days ago, so I kept it company while I took some pictures.

These pictures were taken with a Kodak Easyshare Z650 in Salem, Oregon.

To get the most out of these photos, you can click on the images to the right of this article and it will bring them up as a larger size.

I hope you like these ones.

I have also been trying to live by this quote by John D. Rockefeller, now that I've finally realized at the ripe old age of 31 that I have a passion for photography.

The road to happiness lies in two simple principles; find what interests you and that you can do well, and put your whole soul into it - every bit of energy and ambition and natural ability you have.

Hmm... not too sure why the pictures aren't showing up like they should. Usually there is a section to the right of the article that says "This article's images" and you can view each one from there. BUT - it's not showing up that way right now. Maybe later?

Behold the
Wholesome beauty of
The lady bug

One picture showed up. Very well done. The detail is great. Thanks for sharing.
Shawnee G. Feb 27, 2007, 5:42am EST
Very good Faith. I only see the one photo as well, but it is a nice one. I like the color of the lamb's ear against the red of the bug.
Karolyn Q. Feb 27, 2007, 5:56am EST
Great shot.
Bonnie S. Feb 27, 2007, 7:32am EST

Barb S. Feb 27, 2007, 8:33am EST
What a wonderful close-up!!
Cathy S. Feb 27, 2007, 8:50am EST
The one picture that I do see is amazing!!

It's so vivid that the little ladybug looks painted! I absolutely love the plant's texture and color. These really came out great!
Melanie S. Feb 27, 2007, 9:34am EST
Beautiful color! I love ladybugs. About one of the only bugs I'm not terrified of for some reason LOL though they still freak me out a little if they land on me.

This is a great picture. A macro of the lady bug would be greattoo. I love fooling around with my camera.
Bebe S. Feb 27, 2007, 10:15am EST
I can see all the photos and they are great!!! The little bug doesn't even look real.
Jennine D. Feb 27, 2007, 11:21am EST
Very nice photos, wow a ladybug, but then you live in Salem, Oregon so I bet spring is showing around the edges there already. I envy you.
Shawnee G. Feb 27, 2007, 11:23am EST
Angela M. I thought it was lamb's ear. I could be wrong, but I see it all over Oregon so that is what I assumed it was.
Mary McCartt Feb 27, 2007, 12:07pm EST
Great pictures and wise words. Lady bugs do bite. I accidently walked into a hillside covered with them and they were highly indignant. Little buggers bit my legs....hahaha.
Cortney R. Feb 27, 2007, 12:12pm EST
those pictures a really nice. i love the close up, so crisp and clear.
Jennifer P. Feb 27, 2007, 12:18pm EST
I see 1 1/2 pics. But from what I can see, nice pictures. Thanks for sharing.
Nancy S. Feb 27, 2007, 1:39pm EST
cute picture...haven't seen any lady bugs in Michigan yet. I guess its so cold.

I edited the article, and uploaded all 3 pictures again, so I hope now they are all showing up. Sorry again about that... I couldn't figure out why the images weren't showing up to the right of the article like they usually do, and now I know why. Only one of them was even showing up in the 1st place! Anyhoo... they are all uploaded again now and they should all be showing up. Thanks!
Shawnee G. Feb 27, 2007, 2:16pm EST
Much better. It is cute.
Wendy F. Feb 27, 2007, 5:57pm EST
Great pictures ! Your ladybug is more red than the ones we have here. Ours are a dark orange .
Scott L. Feb 27, 2007, 9:27pm EST
Great photos Faith, you definitely have talent.
Angela W. Feb 27, 2007, 11:49pm EST
Gorgeous, love the red against the purple leaves!
Alicia Storey Feb 28, 2007, 11:17am EST
these are beautiful I loved them. thank you for sharing
Debra H. Mar 1, 2007, 12:40am EST
Faith go in and edit your article space down the sides ofthe top pic to move the others below it into view. The one that shows is wonderful. 10
Larry H. Mar 1, 2007, 1:45pm EST
Thanks for sharing....don't see many lady bugs around here.
Mary C Legg May 23, 2007, 9:40am EDT
Wow- how is it that the 650 is so much better camera than the 700 that came after it? this is really outstanding and thanks for contributing to Small World
