[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
If you could see how extremely much I dislike bugs and how much they creep me out then you would know how big of a moment this is for me. I have a small olympus stylus 710. On my macro mode I have to get right in there. So that I have a detailed bee is very cool to me. Showing him off proudly.
Enjoy!!!

Hi Christan

I share your feelings about insects and admire your posting for that reason alone! However, the stong colours and forms here together with the bee create a lovely image.

Hi Christan,
I understand the dislike for bugs that some people have (This is from a bug lover)..
So I share in your monumental moment, especially knowing how close you must get to those creepy things..
Colorful frame, with the bee well exposed & detailed. Nicely done Christan :)

Hello Christan

A very cute Bumbler.

Well seen and captured on a beautiful flower.Very nicely composed with shrp details and focus.

Hello Christian, you can put your fears away. This is not a "honey bee" but rather a bumblebee.
The great thing about them is that you can approach them without any fear!
They rarely attack!

They are very happy to "pose" and are one of my "favorite" bugs to shoot!

You picked a good moment, with very interesting play of light!

Keep 'em coming! Jay
