Descending

About the photo:  I captured this beauty in my kitchen and could not help but to snap...oh a few hundred quick shots with my digital camera.  These little suckers are quick!! 

Their proper name is Lady Bird Beetle and they are a little different from the common Lady Bugs.  They are much quicker too and I found that the hard way!  Regardless, I was so grateful for this precious little bug to allow me to play with it and snap a few memorable keepsakes, ever so preciously preserved in a timeless bubble!  Once I was finished I thanked it for it's cooperation and let the little bug go back to the nature where it belongs.


Dimension: The dimension of this photo is easily a perfect 12"x12" and perhaps even larger.

Choice of my colour palette: I used the complimentary colours to the grass strand.  

Result:  A playful and enchanted Lady Bird Beetle getaway in 3 series.

Series:  As a result I've been able to develop a series of three still portraits each one with a unique name to fit the action at the moment.  BALANCE, DESCENDING and DEPARTING.
