I caught this honey bee zeroing in on a Chinese lantern Blossom. He was definitely taking a beeline . Thanks for all the feedback and suggestions

Absolutely beautiful. Amazing detail on the bee, and the colors of the bee with the red flower are beautiful.

An outstanding in-flight catch on the bee, Ry. The color coordination with the flower is great as well.

Hi Ry,
Very nice, and a larger version will be easier to examine. The bee is reasonably sharp with lots of motion blur from the wings. Looks good......................Jim
