crowded sunflower

[carole wiley]

I am not sure how I feel about this one. I think I may have mucked up the color in PP. I wish the bee on the flower had been looking my way but I liked the landing gear on the incoming bee. It was taken with the 1dmkIIN, 100 mm macro F5, 1/500 eval -1/3 ISO 400 AWB. All observations welcome.

Hi Carole,
I like the composition and capture. I modified your image by cropping from the right and bottom of the frame; also increased the contrast, the hues and sprinkled a slight touch of sharpening...hope you like...:cool:

Nice work on the repost Gus. Cutting off that right side make the image more solid and puts the emphasis on the center of the sunflower and bees. The sharpening is just right!

Thanks Gus, for taking the time. How does one "sprinkle" sharpening, if you don't mind my asking?
