 I was trying to take a shot of the bee on the flower, but (s)he took off right before my shot. I like this picture better than my original idea, and I have always wanted to capture a bee in flight.

Cropped, sharpened, and re-sized for the web.

Your bee should be in more focus than the flower and this would be great.
