caught with Brikon mkII (D300, yummy) and my even yummier 60mm micro lens - I was actually photographing a lovely large spider that's taken up residence in my herb garden (and who provided me with some private entertainmenmt when she caused a burly security response guard jump a few meters back!) Anyhow, I noticed these ladybirds are farming aphids (one good reason to have other plants in between your vegies!), but interestingly I also noticed them running around the web strands with no problem. I have heard that spiders can make only parts of their webs sticky, so this may be the reason, or they may simply be immune... I could ask Google but I think my time right now is better spent catching up on work I didn't do during my burglary-enforced break, so I'll leave it up to you to ponder...
Bonking bugs. (The third seemed keen on a threesome but the pair were not interested... they bounded off down the stem together, and later I spied them atop a teeny blossoming bud... wish I was that talented!)
Love it, Andy! You definitely have a style that's all your own, no cookie cutter, prosaic pics outta you....Always a treat : )
