Yet another shot with no real thought about the challenge I want to enter, just picking one I like that seems appropriate, after the fact. At least I finally submitted a photo after so long!
EF 100mm F2.8 Macro, sun blasting from behind, mild fill flash, shadows and hilights, levels, saturation, noise ninja, crop, resize, unsharp mask.
I expect a score commesurate with my complete lack of effort. :)

Wow, thanks everyone! I was hoping for the top ten, but this is as good as it gets without a ribbon! I really appreciate you all ignoring the crappy technicals and a much too shallow DOF. :)
Beautiful hair haloes, transparency, sharpness, and color. Slight crop may help reduce the amount of blur on the right. Great macro image, hope that it does well.
Creation Glory again! What a shot! The varying hues of yellow caused by increasing density & decreasing translucency make for an interesting study! Great Photo!
Word of caution though...Tell the subject to wear a slip next photo session. That outfit is rather "bee-through." :)
This is an amazing image, I just love how you can see all the tiny hairs on the body of the bee..... I nearly missed this shot, but so glad I didn't. It is just magical.....One can see through the delicate wings. I love it, and hope this get a ribbon as it is richly deserved.
HEE HEE - I like the title. The detail is good and it's an overall well done macro. Not nuts about the blurred flower, but I understand you were going for perspective probably. 7
