Colorful Macro Assignment
Well, I know .... I have left myself open to probably all the police:). The HA here is zero except on the flower, but the BBA (that's bee bum angle) isn't bad:D.
Seriously, what I like here are the colors, the composition, and the detail in the flower head and the bee. I know it is a bit different, so I am interested in your reactions.
C&C's much appreciated.
Cheers

My initial reaction is: a lot of contrast! But, as long as you like it...Originally Posted by Gail Spitler
Hi Gail - Have looked at this a few times - Just cant make my mind up - certainly different.
Hi Gail,
This certainly is different, I like the sharp details on your bee and the super saturated color scheme...would have liked to have seen the little guys face, maybe on the next one around...keep them coming...:cool:
Hi Gail Would only like to see some features in the dark part of the bee I love the right side with the various tones but not he left dark side
I can see what attracts you to this image and have several myself that feel the same one. In my case I have such a strong feeling for the parts I like that I seem to overlook others !!!!
Thanks for the comments. I had to smile in agreement at Al's comment, "I have such strong feeling for the parts I like that I seem to overlook others." Ain't it the truth. This certainly why I appreciated getting your reactions. The whole image probably needs to be toned down and parts lightened, even if I see it as an OOTB image.
Thanks very much. Most helpful
Cheers
Gail
ps I do have images of the other end of bees on flowers as well (smile)

Very colorful indeed Gail. Personally I would have like to have seen the whole flower.
