Why on earth do your pictures keep cimoing up last?
There's a conspiracy out there and someone's got your number.
Well, there are useful enough things said in some of the comments, and at least it doesn't stop you.
It's a lovely bit of nature. |

Good try but not sharp enough |

The colours are lovely and good timing to get the bee. The shadows from the sun are a bit distracting. If you can't position yourself to hide the shadows perhaps using a fill flash may have helped. What really hurt this shot for me is the lack of focus. Macro shots really only work when the focus is sharp IMHO. I don't have a macro lens so when I want to photo something small I back up enough to have the subject in focus then crop as much as possible without losing too much resolution. 3. |

Kind of soft and a bit short on oomph somehow. Not a lot of detail showing in the bee. I think this may have been tough light for this kind of shot. |

This looks pretty heavily cropped and not quite a macro shot. I like the colors but it is not real sharp. YOu got the flower details, bt lost them on the bee. Shooting in the harsh afternoon sun can be difficult... I have discovered the Sunny f16 rule. In mid day sunlight, use an aperture of f16 with a shutter speed equal to 1/iso. So at ISO 100, shutter speed would be 1/100. You should look it up online. The Sunny f16 rule... I have been having fun with that because it doesn't limit you to shooting only in the golden hours! |

Good attempt. What this photo really needs is tack sharpness, which it simply doesn't have. Also, maybe turning down the color saturation down a bit would help, as it feels neon bright. |

The bee is out of focus and there is some purple fringing on the edge of the petals. |
