Yun, great timing on this. I like that you caught the bee's shadow too. If you have more image to the right, I'd like to see more of the yellow and to not have the bee's shadow right on the edge.

Wonderful stop action macro shot, Yun. I agree with Craig, it would be nice, if possible, to provide more space to the right. Super sharp image of the be though. Very impressive.

The large view's rich with stop action detail Yun.
Great exposure and I like the bees shadow I see there too

Yun, a great catch on this bee, with pollen bags and it's shadow. I agree with the others that if you have it, some more space on the right would be good. However this is a very good looking capture as presented, with it's strong focus on the flying bee.

Yun, kudos for capturing a moving subject in macro and excellent focus. The pollen on the legs is a real bonus

Great Hover shot Yun. Lovely flower color, crisp details and I really like the shadow of the bee.

Thanks for all the comments and suggestions. I don’t have canvas on the right. I agree that more space to the right would be better.

Stop action shot with fine details. I also like the color combination.
