 Well the challenge descriptions doesn't say insects... so I hope I don't get hammered.
When visiting a cemetery I met this wonderful creature at a bunch of crocuses. Look how much pollen she already collected!

I was one of your 9s.

If you'd have sharpened that eye in post, I'd have been one of your 10s. :D

Fantastic image!

This was one of my challenge favorites, Barbara. I wondered what kind of lens you were using to get it, and I'm pleasantly surprised to find I have that same focal length in my kit. I need some pointers, please. :-P Congrats!

This is an awesome shot! Almost any other week, I feel this would be an easy win, but the competition is fierce in this challenge!

He looks like he has brought the honey with him. Nice capture just before he reaches the flower.
