    I took this image on Ainsdale nature reserve, there were quite a few there but I think I would have done better the week before.
    All C&C welcome.

    I love this. When I opened the image my eye when right to the bee, the sharply focused blossom. Outstanding work.

    Hi Jon. Very sharp "bee," nice even light, and a good background. I might wish the foreground stem wasn't there, but not much you could do about that at a nature reserve. Well done!
