I like the title and the wonderful amount of detail that you captured. The angle works really well. I like how his fuzzy areas have extra texture and interesting patterns.

    thanks so much Mike! I was thrilled to get this one... and believe me, it took a lot of shots to get it :)

This is an astounding capture. I know bee's will bring pollen and nectar to the nest, but I did not know that they transport water too. I can see the water drop clearly in her mandibles. The bee's head is pin-sharp. I like how the photo is compost, but might would crop a little at the left. The photo has a good depth and the bee is well placed into the frame. The yellow deep center emphasizes the bee nicely.

    Thank you so very much Cleo! I did try cropping more on the left, but if just did not look right to me... I really appreciate the comments and review :)
