:: Hello from the Critique Club ::
............................................................
This is without doubt a timely, difficult capture. You did well to be there and to frame it. All that's missing is fast shutter speed, as you actually have focused on the bee very well indeed - it's just moveing too fast for your conditions.
Ideally you should set your camera to shutter priority mode and gauge light conditions by observing your camera's histogram and aperture readings. Too fast and you'll get a dark, noisy shot; too slow and you'll get blurred motion.
Experiment on the flower prior to the bee's arrival to see which results work best. You could also try setting it to Image Burst mode here (I don't know the Rebel but I imagine it has some sophisticated settings) which will give you more shots to choose from. Finally, try to use a tripod and select your best flower, then wait! You should get lucky.
OIne final note - a bit more of the flower and less dark space at the top would have improved the composition.
Cheers
Jon
