Description
This little fella actually landed on me and started walking around on my arm, so I let him down on a bit of grass and took some photos...
Some additional info below....
Enjoy!
---------------------------------------
Coccinellidae is a family of beetles, known variously as ladybirds, ladybugs, or lady beetles.
They are found worldwide, with over 5,000 species described, more than 450 native to North America alone. Coccinellids are small insects, ranging from 1 mm to 10 mm (0.04 to 0.4 inches), and are commonly yellow, orange, or scarlet with small black spots on their wing covers, with black legs, head and antennae.
Ladybirds are generally considered useful insects as many species feed on aphids or scale insects, which are pests in gardens, agricultural fields, orchards, and similar places. Some people consider seeing them or having them land on one's body to be a sign of good luck to come, and that killing them presages bad luck.

IMO this one can be improved... recropping a bit the image (probably there is too much in the right side).
It seems also that the coccinella has eys out of focus.. I know how much is difficult.
Can you add the camera settings, please?

The bright leaf is distracting. I would wither crop it out or heal it.

Could be a bit sharper.
A bit of noise on the main grass blade.
Bright area in the background is a bit distracting.
