These are photos I took last year. I enjoy walking through fields or woods and see what I can find. What do you think ???

What a fun, enjoyable series :)
I'd say you have a great eye for spotting all creatures great and small.
Welcome to UHH!

Images #7, #8, & #9 is a Multi-Colored Asian Lady beetle (Harmonia axyridis).

I agree with you - there is beauty in all living things. But, I doubt that the bumblebee in the grasp of the praying mantis would find any beauty in that photo. And I am surprised to find a lady brave enough to get close to a spider!
Great work, thanks for sharing.

Nikonian72, thanks for the invite. I have looked in more than once. In the past I have seen many excellent macro shots of bugs, flowers, jewelry. stamps, coins, you name it; taken by some very talented ladies, some customers and some co-workers. My comment was made in jest, I didn't think anyone would take it seriously and it was not intended to offend.
