While taking photos of this exotic flower which I thought might make a good submission, the bee landed right in front of my lens! Brave little bee :) My wife saw this flower and suggested I take the pic as she wasn't tall enough to take it, so I can't take all the credit :)

I do not care much for photos of insects, however the colors in this photograph are wonderful. Great blues and violets. Reds, yellows, greens, just very well done.
the flower structure is wonderful and the pollen specks on the bee...It might be stronger with a crop on the right, just to the edge of the purple petals
Wonderful focus and colors. I do believe there is a lot going on in this shot and it's hard for the eye to land. Maybe a tighter crop on just the bee. Don't take me wrong.....this is fantastic..Congrats.
