My kind of image, Yun. Beautiful wash of color and pinpoint focus on the bee. Perfect dof managment and exposure. I wish the bee was facing the other direction, but a terrific image and definate keeper as is. devil

I agree 100% with everything Scott has said, very nice macro work Yun.

And it's probably true that the bee headed into the Rt side will not bother the average viewer a bit.. IMHOcool

Well donedevil

The yellows in this view are great, Yun.  They really set off the details in the bee very well.
