I saw one of these yesterday but didn't have the right lens for a nice tight view, like this one, Yun. The bee glistens well in the larger view and the details seen there are outstanding. The flower looks good also.

This is really nice Yun. The shiny metallic green is excellent in the larger view, along with overall lighting and detail. Nicely done.

Very, very nice, Yun. Excellent detail on the sweat bee (Agapostemon Splendens). Good color and comp. Well taken!
