A sight thats so common in summer.

Excellent comp and exceptional detail right down to the individual hairs and specks of pollen, Ram. Good use of the flash. Frankly, I would not have assumed you used a flash had you not said so. You might try dodging the reflection of the flower in the lower part of the bee's eye to see if you can add some color in the eye. Sometimes this works for me. Excellent bumblebee image.

It looks like the bee is in pollen heaven. Love all of the pollen specs covering it.
