Love the colors, just having a hard time seeing where the focus is.

1st, thank you for not giving this the title "Busy Bee." :P

2nd, photos of bees on flowers are high on my list of "jeez, another one?" when viewing these challenges. This one is definitely one of the more interesting I've see. I like that the bee is in flight. I like his little legs hanging down with those pollen things. And I like the rich orange/yellow color of the whole photo.

I might crop it a bit tighter on the bottom, into more of a square shape. I don't care for those shadows down there.

Very nice warm colours. Just find it too soft overall, including the interpretation on busy. It can be a pretty picture by itself once it's sharpened a tad more but not for this challenge.

Flower is OK, but has some blown highlights. Kudos for capturing bee in flight, but you should have told her to turn around and face the camera.

Beautiful picture! Just a little more focus would have been fine...
