This was a fun shot, as it is my first big 'bee'! He towers over my little fellas! LOL! Who knows, maybe I can offer real competition to Russ at this point! We will see, as he has in his repertoire many pretty husky looking bees! I thought the flowers and the bee were a nice blend of contrasting colors! Please enjoy! Marilyn

Everything works so well together in this shot !!! I even like how the petal above the bee seems to be lifting her "skirts" so you can get a better view of the bee ..lol.. The colors are thrilling in this capture, and the bee is better than a bee has a right to bee....(I think I had one too many bees in there) The background is blurred just right, and the while things are still visible, they don't compete with the all important focal point... High, high marks from me, and congratulations on a perfectly marvelous shot. :)PJ

Beautiful work Marilyn, this will be on my desktop so i can keep an eye on that bumble bee, he's a mean looking critter. A 10 all over the place on this one. Have a wonderful day, young lady. Your friend Dwight.
