[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Photographed this bee and think it is a type of bumble bee called Bombus pascuorum, but would like to know for sure. Insects are not my strong point, but I like to know what it is I've taken a photo of. Not the best of photos, to be sure... but here it is anyway.

Hi Mish,
I'm not sure about the I.D.
Sharp with a decent composition.
Great DOF.
Well done,
Joe

Hi Mish.
Your bee picture is great. I am impressed with excellent sharpness of the insect and flowers, excellent sunlight and perfect POV. May be, for my taste, free space at the right part of the shot is too large. I think cropping would be improved. But it is not a key point. My compliments and best regards.

Hi Mish,

Mish, The shot may not be excellent for you but it looks natural. You have left enough room for the fly in the frame. Lovely details and thanks for sharing. Ganesh

Hello Mish,

Nice picture: detailed, good colour and light and good depth of field. I think that cropping the right-hand-side of the picture (perhaps creating a square image), would improve the composition, giving the picture better balance. However, the key components are there, which is the main thing. tfs
