Pollen Overload
A pollen covered bee in a crocus flower12 total reviews
Comment from ElliR
This photo showcases stunning detail in the bee's wings. The use of minor curves and levels adjustments enhances the overall appeal of the picture, and the background provides a nice contrast to the brightly colored bee and flower , still the background could be improved...There are green spots and it's not fully darkened, which detracts from the overall quality of the image. Some additional editing, such as brushing ( looks like you already started brushing but not finish it ) could greatly enhance the beauty of the photo.

OMG Elli thank you SO much, you were so right! I'll blame it totally on failing eyesight because it couldn't possibly be bad workmanship! Lol
I've touched it up and reposted, so hopefully it's better now? Please let me know if I've still missed bits.
Thank you.

Looks great now :)
-
Thank you :-)

Actually, there is a small green spot, up, between the two petals. but it is insignificant. :))
-
Oh yes! Thanks so much Eagle-eye ;)
-
Hmm I've done it, but as yet the new upload isn't showing that, maybe it takes a little while?
-
It wasn't necessary. One could hardly see it, only my Eagle Eye :)) ! I think if you save it to png, it works instantly , but really it's fine
-
Oh I might try that then, cos I've now re-uploaded it 3 times and nothing has changed!
-
Nope, still the same, oh well Ms. Eagle Eye it'll have to stay as it is. But thank you very much!

Wow ! The bee is overloaded indeed! Look at all of the pollen it has collected over its body!
I love the soft purple flower it has collected from .
You have photographed it well with good focus, this image is clear, exposure is correct, colors and tones appear natural.
The black background works to emphasize the flower and bee.
Well composed and presented! Best wishes to you in this contest!
