Nice capture of the bee on the pretty pink toned flowers.
This is well focused, this image is clear, exposure is well managed, the colors and tones appear true and natural. Nice position of the bee, I see good detail including its fuzzy texture. Well composed and presented! Best wishes to you in this contest!

A very nice shot. Both the bee with his loaded pollen bags and the flowers are shown in great detail. The colors are great and the composition is eye catching.

Thanks for pointing out the spider, I was so enthralled by that bee, lol,, interesting how insects do not get disturbed by the flowers that might give harm. Beautiful photo of such a wonderful and helpful insect,

This is really lovely. Nice and sharp on the bumblebee and then beautiful soft focus on the background. The colour of the flowers and the contrasting bee work well to make him stand out even more. :)
I also like that sneaky little white spider underneath the smaller of the flowers! Almost missed it! :D
All the best in the competition.

Keep creating,
Ann, OpenroadFootprint

A very good looking entry into the competition posted here! Your fine and classical composition offers us an enjoyable view of your bee and its location. Like the gleam on the bee and petal detail. Well done and good luck!

A beautiful picture of the Bombus pascorum ~ Carder Bumblebee on the left Foxglove flower lip collecting pollen & the white Crab Spider on the lip of the Foxglove flower both bathed on sunshine. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.
