the petals behind the bee seem more in focus than the bee itself. great composition and timing!

Only when the larger version of this photo is viewed does the magnitude of its beauty stand out. Wonderful colors!

Very beautiful shot, your colors are gorgeous.

This is very nice...your depth of field is right on. I personally like the colors as well. Makes for a good composition overall. Good job.

Beautiful flower. Should have come in more to call it "Bee". As "Flower with Bee" it would have gotten at least an 8 because that better fits your picture, in my opinion. As "Bee" I can only give it a 6 because with your title I expected to see a close up of a bee. Still 6 ain't nothing to be sneezed t. Sorry.. PTL

Little bit soft.

Nice shot of the flower... too far from the bee, though. A tighter shot of the center of the flower with a more prominent bee would have been more striking.

Bee should occupy more of the frame. Nice shot

An object this centered should be taken much closer, or cropped in much closer. The photo is pretty good, but the shallow DOF of macro does not lend itself to having foreground images this much closer than the subject. On the brighter side, it is a good capture and the subject is in good focus. Overall the image would be much better if the framing was changed. - Inspzil
