Roz, this is AWESOME. It's flawless, so I don't understand why it's not on the front page, but it is a great photo. I always love macros better if they are in the context of a great photo, like this one. Congratulations on perfection.

Excellent Roz, and I felt it deserved a higher score, but it is still a good result, as there are some awesome images in this challenge, and yours is one of them.

good details in the bee - i wonder if a more diagonal crop may have added a bit more drama and interest

When you have 20 bees in the challenge voting gets tough, nice image and good angle to have all the bee in focus.
