First one is a St Andrew\'s Cross spider (Argiope Keyserlingi).
Second one is a Two-tailed spider (Family Hersiliidae). What\'s unusual is the oversize spinnerets which are about as long as its abdomen, hence the name. The hair on the abdomen is also kinda feathery.
Last one is a Steelblue Ladybird. You can probably see why it\'s called that, it\'s blue and it\'s steely.
One of the most reflective insect I\'ve ever shot, you can see the black area on the right hand side where there\'s no light reflected.
Thanks for looking!!
