This was right before cold (if you can call it that in Georgia) hit, and I figured this might be the last supper for this party crasher.

Bob: This is really good. The BG is the perfect complement to the flower and the bee is a very nice touch. Well done. >=))>

If you are trying to convey cold, the dark aqua and green cast certainly do it. :smile: Was this an after sundown shot?

A simple, very sharp and natural shot. I would like to have seen more complete specs.

Beautifully composed Robert. Excellent subject isolation and the critter really tops the image off. I might consider sharpening the flower a touch but I'm not sure of that. I like the image a lot exactly as posted.

Robert, I think you visiting bee really makes the image. Nice job.

A perfect flower specimen. Love the yellow against the muted green, and the "Visitor" adds nicely to the shot.

Ah sunflowers! The party crasher indeed adds a nice touch to a lovely portrait. I really like the composition and the BG. IMO, I'd nip just a little off the top.

I am liking the very subdued light and the bee adds a nice touch.
