I've been told it's good luck to have a ladybug land on you.  If that were the case, then in a few moments I happened upon many a good fortune despite Ms. Lady not landing on me.  I happened to be taking out the trash when I came upon this beauty.  Funny how I was taking out the old and stumbled upon this treasure.  I think it was fate that brought me to capture these images.  Despite the window blowing and the time lapse before finally getting my camera ready for this shoot, she stayed put and allowed me to snap such lovely images.  Big thank you to Mother Nature and thank you Ms. Lady ..for it is ever refreshing to find charm in the little things.
