WOW, pretty darn high!

T, congrats on a top 100 finish in the Best of and (of course) beating me. Hopefully this will mean we get to see more of your work in challenges during 2009?

Very nice score, Natalya! I really do like the way the petals form almost a spray of light behind the critter. And the color rocks. :-) (Check out that commenter average!)

The pedigree of honey
Does not concern the bee;
A clover, any time, to him
Is aristocracy.

Apart from the small fact that this is a killer bee macro (that's, killer pause bee macro - not, killer bee pause macro), the colour is so fantastically wild and different to the norm, I can't help but be swept away.

Go you good thang! May your score soar ;)
