just a lovely shot, the play of textures and colors are very fine. I expect you will have some people say it needs to be tighter, but I think you have used macro to make a beautiful image, rather than maximize the macro and making a dull image. my favorite thus far.10
I really, really like this. The fact that the bee mirrors the shape of the clover is great. Nice crisp colors with just enough background that is not overpowering. Good job
Great shot. For me this has what alot of macro shots are missing, great DOF with the entire main subject in sharp focus. Great detail and bright complementary colors. the top and right could be cropped a little more and it would still be a great shot without centering the flower and bee too much.
The focus is astonishingly sharp. Both clover and bee are superbly lit and rendered. One wonders whether the composition might be strengthened by cropping a bit of the right side off the image.
And if you will allow a bit of an absurdist comment: the bee or the clover is the wrong color. This commentator just doesn't like black and gold with this bright cerise, chartreuse green (BG) , red, and white.
9 - Ohh, wow. Wonderful colors. Great shot of the flower. Good shot of the bee. For me the flowers actually dominate this picture, which draws my attention away from the lack of fine detail in the bee. Very nice photo. More detail on the bee maybe, but then you might lose the flower. Love the detail there in the centre of the 'flower'. You have made clover look very pretty and captured its character extremely well. Now I am wondering about 'pp' (re colors). I will come back to see how you did this.
