Ladybug in Action

This Ladybug was quite busy yesterday, going from flower to flower. It was quite a challenge to actually catch her in the frame without her motion blurring the picture. This is one of the photos where I succeeded, and I love the color combination with the flower, as well as the totally clean background, which makes the bug (and the flower) stand out.

What do I like about this photo? The Ladybug is tack-sharp, while the flower becomes gradually more and more blurry, and the background is completely blurred out. This way the Ladybug stands out (and her colors are beautiful, as well).

What would I want to improve? The stance of the Ladybug could have been more interesting - this photo is a complete side portrait, and a better view of her back could have been even more impressive.
