This is a lovely image, and a beautifully caught bee/flower combo. Just a thought: it may be the whole story is in the bottom half of your frame. Maybe a different crop would make this delightful image even better.

Good macro and excellent timing on the shutter click.
I have tried many times to capture a bee in flight and appreciate how hard they are to get.
Nice tones and color levels without over-saturating the shot as is so easy to do.

I like this, it is always difficult to catch beasties in flight and you have done a good job.

great capture although underexposing a little bit more would have made the colours bolder
