Your bee seems to be doing something unspeakable to that flower ;)

GREAT shot! HIGHLY underrated IMHO!

The detail is incredible here. I love the unusual pose of the bee. I have never seen one quite like this.The colors pop really well. I think the only things hold it back are the busy background for this type of photo and maybe a slightly different angle. Still a terrific macro photo.

nice enough capture, but a bit over-exposed. maybe if shot at a different time of day, you could have gotten more detail in the petals.

The green leaves at the background distracts me from an otherwise sweet subject.
