you're very lucky he stayed still while you figured things out ..
that is almost a miracle ..
so you are beating me in that respect .. that has NEVER happened for me ..
anyway .. i'm liking the details on his wing .. he looks like he could morph into a super hero any second .. a lot of those super heros have that plastic looking gear .. !! |

You're right; it is interesting to have unusual bits of a bug in focus. I don't think of bees as having muscles, but they do ... they must. You've succeeded in making me ponder the physiology of bees :-) |

Bees are never easy to shoot as they rarely pose just the way you want them too ... I agree that having the head in focus is important but you have enough detail in this to give me the creepy crawlies :) |

Think the image needs the head of this fellow in focus and the green part on the bottom doesn't help the image very much. Still, it's a nice photo with some very nice details! |

Thanks for your comments. This one is pretty cool too--I like the yellow tuft of fur on his back. If only there was a little more light on its side, so you could see more detail in the black hairs. The wing and legs look great, though! |

Would be better for me if the head was the focus of the shot. It's an odd composition as it is i feel. - (later) Actually, i've come back to this photograph and spent more time looking at it, and my initial thoughts have changed. I really do like it a lot more now. The unusual focus really makes the shot, give it a kind of mysterious air which can be lacking in a lot of the usual insect macro shots. It's great. Bumping my voting score from a 5 to an 8. I really like this! |

Generally, the head/eye of a living creature is the key area of interest and should be in focus. However, in this image most of the bee is out of focus and dark. |

I know taking such shots is really difficult but the lighting is poor in this shot & subject not looks so interesting. |
