A wonderful 3 part piece/collage, created beautifully showing this bee moving from the various points on the same flower fantastically, giving a real sense of how they work and when you watch them, a realistic set of events demonstrating the wonderful methodic manner in which these beautiful creatures operate. Well lit, great clarity and a brilliant example of a bee at work. A great piece and best of luck in the competition! :)

Interesting as a collage showing how the bee is so busy. The colors are beautiful and I love the soft background. The bee is nice and sharp here. And the blooms show so much detail. Very good work.

This is a very lovely photo!


The hot pink colors and the pollen in with the stamen! The green background works well in the framing.

Beautiful!! Thanks for sharing!!

What a creative entry for the contest. I love the detail in the foxglove and the bee, I
really like the muted background effect too.
This is an impressive creation and I wish you best of luck in the contest.

Cleverly done , you show your artistic bend with this lovely post. Sharp and clear and my gracious, you have three bees pollinating. I love that border...this has a tremendous amount of visual impact.

A Cyber 6 goes to you.

A very nice image. I like the pink foxglove that are arranged along the diagonal. The bee is sharply rendered and the colors are well saturated.

    I had fun following the bee from flower to flower then creating this image.

Comment from SCHATZLING


This is quite a remarkable looking photograph especially how you integrated all three into one photo with seamless lines creating a three photo collage but making it look instead like one photo with three flowers/bees instead of three flowers/bees with three individual photos. Creating a blurred background is also a plus because it removes any deterrents and lets the viewer continue to look at what he is supposed to...the flower....the bee. This post is a perfect entry for this contest and from its color to contrast n9ot to mention the highlights and shadows plus its exposure, tight cropping and overall composition are top notch. I even like how you have another picture exactly the same exactly behind it but only peeking out far enough around its entire circumference to give that extra WOW factor. Excellent. Thanks for sharing and best of good fortune at the voting booth....but one thing does have me a little bit concerned and I will go and check the contests criteria one more time....I hope mixed media is authorized....if not DQ would be an awful thing to have happen.

    Katherina,
    Danke shone for your great review on the Bees.
    If I've messed up on the rules so be it....
    .the most votes I've ever got in a contest is two so I seldom enter anything.
    If I'm sure it's good & I get some good reviews that's enough for me!

Dynamic diagonal framing creates a fantabulous image.

Excellent choice of subject with impressive color contrast.

Verdant backdrop pops out the bloom nicely.

A well though out collage.

Aesthetic superimposed borders.
Impressive mixed media rendition.

Excellent colors & textures. Interesting modification.
Great lighting with no overblown spots.

Thanks for sharing!
