Great finish - excellent composition, and I love all the pollen on the bee.

I thought I commented on this shot....? Sometimes I think they get lost in cyber space. The colors are so clean, the whole shot is clean, clear and sharp. Excellent work Soni.

This was a fun shot to take. I usually am afraid of bees but this little guy was pretty small. He was only about a half inch in length. He was climbing from flower to flower while his buddy's were flying. He must have been pretty full.

First macro shot taken with my new Rebel. I love this camera.

Thanks everyone for the comments.

This photo comes over with such a clean effect! The detail in the bee is fantastic, I can almost make out every little strand of hair. Good work here!

The early bee catches the pollen, or something like that. Well taken close-up.

Excellent definition on this pollen covered bee! I rather like the muted colors of the flowers. It adds to the enormous attraction of the bee. I looked at the cropping and decided it's just fine in my book. I'm excited for you that you got such a great image of that bee. Those wings. Okay, I'll stop now...

Wow, great macro. I only wish that little piece of petal lower left were not there. It's a tiny bit distracing. Nice work.
