Very nice picture but without the caption it could be almost any time of day except late afternoon. Actually the lighting (at least on my monitor lacks morning color.
6: I think the title is going to hurt this as it makes it seem as if you have contrived to fit it into the challenge when you didn't need to - the bee collecting pollen could be a usual morning activity in itself. The image is ok but his right wing is clearly cut by a foreground plant that is OOF which for me spoils the feel.
