Found this large bumble bee enjoying a snack on the phlox yesterday and found that I'd captured an annoying little gnat as well! (I'm trying to get braver about taking insect shots but they will never be my favorites! LOL)

The gnat seems to be waiting his turn Kathy.
Beautiful colors.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

Sharp focus on the bumble bee Kathy. The little one is probably afraid of the bee. Very nice capture.

I admire your courage Kathy because this bee is a toxic species, LOL!!!! I was just kidding my friend.

Love both the static and the dynamic part of your image. The colors are wonderful (only valid for the the static part!)

Regards, Cornelius.

Very good color,and the bee looks to busy to be bothered by you. Sometimes when I look through the zoom, it almost freaks me out! Lol! Tigs♥ =^..^=

I'm glad you caught that gnat, they always end up in my nose or mouth, lol. Great shot!

Ticks comment made me really laugh, leave it to him. Anyway this is an outstanding composition and clarity with rich colours and the bee and gnat are a bonus.
