Very nice shot! Vivid colors!!!! Sharp on the bee. A little too much light on the wings, but that's picking nit. Very good details. 9 Rob the Swash

Is this a bee? A refreshing take on the familiar flying thing in flower macro shot. Great colours. 10

The bee looks like it's suspended in mid-air. This image just doesn't seem to look right.

Very pretty - though it looks a bit like the bee is hanging in midair with its wings unspread (and therefore not flying), at this detail level.

Beautifully captured image. Composition and color very good. Perfect DOF for your subject, people often try doing too much with depth of field. Nice job.

No surprise; that is not a killer bee. Killer bees look like honey bees, but are much darker. I know, I've been attacked by them before.

Good shot. Sharp. Good magazine cropping. Perfectly done. Thumbs up.

If you'd called it 'Nature' or 'Natural Geographic,' I could rate it higher; Discover magazine tends recently to have much more manipulated and abstract covers.

Looks like a baby honey bee to me! =)

Great shot but I would have like a little bit less cropped for magazine title and maybe a little less centered (bee)

the DOF is very nicely controlled and the tight focus on the subject (bee) is a plus. However, I would prefer it more if the bee is shot from another angle. 7
