I like how you caught two types of bee on the same flower. The light is a bit bright but the colors stand out well. I like the sharp capture of the bumble bee's fuzziness, and the flower looks good.

I admire the details you captured on these to bees. This image shows the smaller size of the honeybee and its shiny hairless back. The bumble bee has the same coloring on its fuzzy body with the exception of the buff tail.

A beautiful shot with remarkable detail in bot bees. The coneflower makes a perfect background for this odd couple. Great cropping and gorgeous colors.

"We can share, there is plenty for both of us." Nice clear shot that show both insects very well. Good sharp focus. You can really see the differences. Good color, nice use of the light. Well done.

Excellent close up of these two busy bees. Love how you've shown the gossamer nature of their wings. Very good lighting and focus showing a beautifully crisp image. Great composition. Suzanne

Your photos of bees always are well done and this one is one more excellent capture. The bees are very sharp. Excellent details and definition . Colors are very natural.

Fred,
A very beautiful & detailed macro picture of the Bombus Terrestris & NOT a Honey Bee but a Hoverfly look at it's big eyes & just two wings possibly an Eristalis pertinax though I can't be sure. Beautiful & interesting composition, framing & light that glistens off their gossamer wings & glows on the flowers cone. Taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.
Susan

    Fred,
    The title can stay.
    I've made mistakes on identifing bees & Hoverflies myself in the past. Bees have smaller eyes, long antennae & four wings. Hoverflies short antennae, large eyes & just two wings.
