Hi Steph,
Great DoF, great sharpness and very neat image. Unfotunatelly, you captured it at time the bee was not facing to your direction, sideways would be OK too, but at least its head could be viewed. Nicely composed and well framed with dark color plus matching purple color lining. Technically, this is a great shot and very nice PP works.

Hello Steph,
Nice to see an other picture from you! :) This is a beautiful macro. I like those details you caught in a very nice POV and composition. I don't know why you say that it doesn't turn out very well; I think this is good! Those colors are well saturated with good lightning! I also appreciated your very interesting notes. Thanks,
Claudine

Hi Steph,
Pic is good concerning colours...sharpness almost good...a bit soft at some places.
On the other hand light is good in the picture...
I think it must be beesexual:-). Good note.

Hi Stephanie,
A nice looking macro shot here. Nice quaity light and a spot on exposure have rendered some beautiful colors. Sharp detail with just some falloff in the DOF on the ends of the bee. Nice POV and composition. Looks very good to me.

Hi Stephanie.
You have shared very colourful and perfect executed picture. I like its amazing blue colour tones, play of lights and shadows, super detailed Bee and skilful cropping. The BG of your shot is very nice too. My compliments and TFS.

Hello Stephanie, nice shot. I love the low point of view you have chosen and the colours and exposure are great. I would like to have seen the focus directed on the eye/head and let the rest of the body fall out of focus.

Nice work, very well done.

(it's a honey bee Apis mellifera)

Hello Stephanie.
Beautiful macro and great composition.
I like very much the contrast of the bee over the violet color of the flower.
Excellent colors and details and also excellent POV and BG.
I like the frame and your note very much.

very nice one Stephanie.
the quality of the shot is very nice, with the composition you also must have some luck. When you could took it with the head forewart you made a world shot, v ery nice job, well seen.

Excellent macro, and great note! Beautiful blue, beautiful bee ;)
Also wish to add an alarming bit of news about bees! Recent reports on unusually high beekills suggest that perhaps cell phones are to blame.
Are we ignorantly committing Apidae-cide?


Tfs, Jay
