 I'm sure I'll get hammered for it not being a mammal, bird, etc... but this really is the wildest thing I had access to this week.

Anyway, I love the way this turned out, so I'm going to enter it anyway and hope that a handful of folks will aprreciate it before labeling it DNMC!

It's a nice photo. I thought insects were not part of this challenge?

I love ladybird shots, the focus is really good on her and the DOF is spot on. The selective desat is really effective.

leaves in the foreground are distracting and in my face.

Intersting use of desat. I wonder if it makes the plants look to barren though and leaves the ladybug looking a bit isolated ?

""wildlife" should be considered non-domesticated mammals, birds, reptiles and amphibians living in a natural environment"

Sorry... I don' think this meets the challenge...although I really like the partial desat. Well done.

I like the focus of attention and the sharpness of the ladybug. I think I would have liked it better if the leaves weren't totally desaturated and had been left with a tint of green. But I love green, so that's just me :)
