This was hard to think of what to do, had some photos I liked more but, could not get a working title. Got this shot because my neighbor lady was gone and she was missing all her flowers in bloom, so I was taking some shots of them to give her when she got home. The Bee was just part of it.

"Documentary - Pollen Catchers" is an good entry into the DPC Cinema challenge.
The overall image is a nice macro/close up. Great focus and clarity to draw the viewers eye right onto the bee. The image looks very sharp, the wings almost look unreal. The background looks a little noisy for me, but of course that might have been what you were going for. Looking at your profile and other work I think you might have been going for this approach, with the sharp almost noisy image. I really do like the close up, we can really see the bee in great detail.
I think this challenge was a little harder because voters, like myself but a little more emphasis on the subject. I personally looked at the shots for the photographic quality and also the believability as a movie. I was a little torn on the title since you used the word Documentary for the D, but in the end it did not take away from the score I gave.
Overall nice close up and I look forward to your future entries.
damn site erased my comment. I was saying that this is better than the other nature documentary shots, because your title suggests a focus for the movie and your picture has a good focal point on the bee. He seems like a character. There's even room on the left for text!
you are streching the D word as this wouldn't actually be a movie title. the photo itself is ok. there seems to be some problems with purple dots on the left hand side.. would be better if the flowers were in better bloom.
