Nice close-up of this worker bee. 7

Not quite enough detail to really score well on the macro range. But, pretty colors, for sure.
Not voting yet.

Fantastically close, but the graininess makes it seem blurred.

Nice job getting the bee on a vertical, it balances the photo nicely. This does seem a bit dark and red on my monitor.

A bit too dark. Nice detail - especially in the wings.
03/16/2009 01:24:23 PMPost actions
Good shot. A bit softer and I feel it would've scored better.

A little unsharp, but great colors and interesting subject.

Image is rather noisy for a macro shot, in my opinion.

A neat macro but it's really grainy and I'm not fond of the orange cast over everything.
03/15/2009 11:12:12 AMPost actions
Nice try at a bee shot. I think the focus is off, noise is obvious and the color is too bright.

amazing detail and great colors
03/15/2009 10:12:59 AMPost actions
Very close, seems a little grainy
03/15/2009 07:06:44 AMPost actions
the image isn't sharp and it looks like it was taken with a slightly too high ISO.

too much contrast and a little oversaturated but good effort to capture this macro, 6

grainy and a bit over saturated with the color.. nice try though
03/14/2009 04:36:53 PMPost actions
a little mid-tone curves adjustment would really make this image pop.

Nice macro with some good detail, but a bit dark and blurred overall.
03/14/2009 02:48:34 PMPost actions
A little grainy from what looks like a severe crop, but you have most of the bee in focus, which is something I have found challenging with photographing bugs.

Not a very good angle for this subject.

Good composition. A little noisy overall.

Very nice--seems a bit over saturated to me.

Nice macro of a bee. Lots of pollen indeed, but the the wings are also very beautiful.

Nice macro, great colors!

It's a great capture of a pollen covered bee, but something went horribly wrong on the technical side. Most of the detail is lost, and it's super-duper grainy/noisy.
03/13/2009 11:46:19 AMPost actions
A little too close for my comfort! lol Really, this is a pretty good capture. Wish it was sharper though.

Good closeup. A little grainey and colours seem a little over saturated. Still the focus seems pretty good. I think the slight bluring is a combination of cropping too much and / or camera abilities.

I like how the bee is carrying all that polen on her back and on the legs and even a bit on the wings.
03/12/2009 11:59:37 PMPost actions
A bit grainy. It seems like a shot like this is really tough to pull off without the right equipment.

Amazing detail, simply a pleasure to look at! Easily an 8 from me...

i see a good deal of noise and pixelation in this capture. The white balance also feels too warm.

Great macro detail - can even make out the little hairs on the legs! Would like to see it a tad brighter though...seems just a bit too dark for me.

Ya have to wonder if it makes them sneeze.

nice crop and dof but it's too grainy and blurry...
03/12/2009 12:43:59 PMPost actions
A little noisy for me but I like the colors.
03/12/2009 12:30:53 PMPost actions
seems a little pixelized/over sharpened(?)
03/12/2009 01:34:40 AMPost actions
Nice macro, I like the details in the wings.
03/11/2009 10:15:53 PMPost actions
nice and close on the fuzzies of the fly, but a not super sharp.
03/11/2009 07:56:43 PMPost actions
I like the anatomical detail you've captured. Especially the wings.
03/11/2009 07:04:22 PMPost actions
I like how you were able to capture the pollen on this guy.
03/11/2009 06:20:47 PMPost actions
For this tight a crop I would have liked to see the bee a lot sharper. Nice capture anyway.
03/11/2009 05:35:10 PMPost actions
Needs some sharpening, the picture is very unclear.
03/11/2009 05:16:27 PMPost actions
Love the pollen on the bee.

Macro photography, I suck at it, but love to look at it..

nice macro, but a little too much noise for me
03/11/2009 11:10:49 AMPost actions
A tad underexposed? Nice shot, though.
03/11/2009 10:34:17 AMPost actions
Great macro, a little noisy but I'm sure any noise reduction software would have affected the textures.

Fantastic focus, beautiful shot.
03/11/2009 01:45:30 AMPost actions
either you cropped this to much or you pushed the colors to much...you have a very grainy picture
