great colors, although the yellow on the bee could be a little deeper, the flowers are stealing the show from him.

It's almost a little too close.

I'd vote higher if the detail in the bee's body were a bit sharper...

Great composition. Colours seem a little flat and focus appears soft to me. Wonder if this is a dead bee Jacko shot (lol).

Terrific, but could use a little more depth of field.

Well as far as bee macros go, this may not be the best I've seen - but it certainly is very good. A) you got really close and the image remains perfectly in focus. B) those are some beautiful flowers - they procide a great context for the bee.
