This is the coolest bee photo I have seen on here so far. I think you captured it in action quite nicely. You also placed the bee in the perfect position on the photo, making for a great composition. The highlights and shadows are nice as well, really making a great photo all around.

Beautiful capture! The color is so soft yet at same time vibrant.
The round body shape of the bee is perfect match with the roundness of the flower.
Good luck for the contest and thank you for sharing.

Had to go to your portfolio to review this shot. Your posts are not coming to my "private messages". Love it and the colors are so very harmonious. A pleasure to review

Excellent photo of this simple flower and bumblebee. I love the picture- very clear, well focused, nice color etc, but I am also giving points because I know how hard those guys are to get a good picture of- they move so fast!! nice work!
