    Bzzzzzzt....

    Yes, bees, more bees.

    Bumblebee. Used the ringflash. Does the reflection in the eye bug anyone else? Or am I just obsessively nitpicky?


    Yellowjacket covered in Goldenrod pollen. I think the flash use was better in this one.


    Yellowjacket again. Little dark and WB seems a bit off.


    Honeybee on Sedum. Little more DOF I think.

    nice macros !!

    the reflection in the eye does not bother me, the reflections on the flowers are more noticeable to me

    Doesn't bother me, just makes me want my macro a bit more.
    mostly Nikon gear

    Feel free to edit my images for critique, just let me know what you did.

    The first two are best. Great color contrast between the black and the yellow. Great focus on the bee. The composition is fun in both.

    I like #1 the best. Great detail of her fur coat.
    - nit pick - The reflection off the eye does take away from the texture of it. DOF is very tight, I would have liked to have seen the wing sharper. Was it moving?
    But that's me.
