Comment from Charlotte Morse
An excellent macro shot Mary!
The focus on the bee is amazingly sharp, with wonderful detail on its eye, legs and especially the wings, and even on its fur/coat (?), it looks so fluffy!
Perfect exposure, neither the bee nor the white flowers have any areas that are under or over exposed!
And very lovely natural colours.
Best of luck in the competition!
Charlotte

Thanks so much Charlotte :)

Fine capture of the bee and the ground flower. The background is nicely blurred. The flowers (and bee, for that matter) look somewhat like a painting. The bee is so up close, especially that eye.

a wonderful close up Mary of this honey bee sipping nectar from the white alyssum flowers; good exposure for the white and excellent sharp details;
