Comment from Linda Wetzel
The softening of the background allows the viewers eye to focus on the bees and flowers. The arrangement of the flowers leads the viewer so that no element is ignored. Wonderful job of capturing the delicacy of the bee wings.

You have captured a wonderful shot of Nature's splendor. Color and detail of the Foxglove are beautifully displayed. The active bees make it picture perfect and Bee-fore I go, let me say how nice it is to view such a lovely photo.

Comment from MKFlood
1 bee huh? very cool. the blend of images is excellent. like the dual border. the clarity is excellent. the capture of the light is excellent. the angle of the shot of the busy bee and the colorful flowers is great. the image is balanced and eye appealing to the viewer. good eye and great job overall.

very busy image~
So much to view! The colors of the blooms really pop and the gently blurred background doesn't distract you from the subject. Great detail in the bees.... well done

Good photo. Is this one flower and one bee layered on each other? Really cool effects. Love the mirror frame, or layered frame.
I wish you luck in the contest.

Comment from nikman
Seems to me that you have 3 bees in this shot! Then again though I am no expert on image manipulation! Your image benefits from good composition, good exposure and it's sharp. Well done and good luck!

Comment from Trajan
Nice image of the industrious little critter.
I love the deep magenta of the flower as a backdrop.
I am not sold on the collage technique, but I do appreciate the image.
Good luck with the contest.

Comment from bpellephoto
This take is very imaginative and very, very creative. Your efforts in post production are exceptional and very well thought through.

The camera technique is definitely top notch.

Each of the three frames are of equal exposure and depth of color saturation.

I can well appreciate the effort in this take, Foxglove is not the easiest of blooms to photograph well. Your images are excellent.

This is a very good entry for this contest ... B-)) Bob
