BIF...

..... which stands also for bee in flight :-)
This one captured using an AF-S 55-200 VR. It's a funny game, to try to focus bif
This one is not a perfect one, but the BG is nice!

Nicely done, Jose! I love that the flower is so in focus and that the BG is so OOF - now we just need to get the bee entirely in focus as well! Very nice attempt on your part - I'd be proud to call this one mine. I think next time go with 1/1000 of the ss and you should be home free!

Hey Jose, these in flight images always fasinate me. This is a tough shot so I don't mind a little softness on the bee, and what great colors in the background.

beautiful image and colors. I would crop in order to put the bee off-center verticaly. Probably removing the lower part of the image.

I know this is about the bee but I can't get over the background. It is beautiful.

And goodness knows, I have enough problems capturing birds-in-flight let alone bees. Overall a nice image. Yes the bee could be sharper but still very nice.

Overall, a very pleasing image, Jose. Nice colors and great background. I agree with Rene that you might explore some different cropping options to place the bee further away from the image center. Well done.

Cool capture Jose!!

I love the gradient BG, nice in flight shot and those lovely flowers work well filling the RH frame from top to bottom.

Well done
