When I got off the highway, I picked up a hitchhiker. No, not a real hitchhiker, it was this little ladybug. It landed on my windshield and hung on for dear life. It walked all around the windshield as I was turning left and right into my neighbourhood. Not even the wind could blow it off.
When I pulled into the driveway, I sprinted into the house and grabbed a cup to put the little guy in until I could get my camera gear set up.
This shot is using all three extension tubes and my 60mm lens. I took about 20 images of this little guy, as he was moving all over the place. Man, are ladybugs fast! I got some good images, but this is by far the best one.
ISO400, 60mm lens with extension tubes, f/32 at 1/200 sec shutter. Had to handhold the camera as this guy was moving. The background is an orange cup that I had the little guy in. He's walking on the edge of the cap for the extension tube set.
