Very nice macro study. And the "expression" of the bee's face is one of "back off." Sharp details of the bee and surrounding flowers. The only things I would have changed are the bright background in the upper right and remove the spider web but with a mean bee like that, I can understand why you didn't. :) Also the border is a bit thick. 7

awesome! i'm not too crazy about the flower, but the bee looks great. if it was sharper then it would be even better!

this is a nice shot. the light in the upper right corner is distracting, I would have cropped it differently, but definitely nice! :) 7

LOVE the expression on the bug. Bet that took a few tries! The hue and saturation of the bug and the buds is very similar. I lose some of the bug. Not much you can do about it however. Hope this does well. good luck.

Nice closeup. The antenna look like mean eyebrows on the bee. I just wish the bee were a little better lit.

cool shot, like the shallow DOF. too bad the upper right corner is blown out. if it wasn't for that, the whole picture could use a little more brightness - I'm looking at it on a very bright screen and it still looks rather dark.
