A close-up view of bumble bee mouth parts including tongue and palp.

The image was rotated 180, i.e. the bee was under a leaf. Had to use a camera stand to capture it with out blurring it out as it was dark under the leaf.

Obvious use of a tripod, or any other long-term stabilization tool (1-10 *is not the score of the shot though*): 7
I know how hard it is to get these types of shots up close, but with the right lighting it can be done handheld.
Obvious tripod use: For me, it's low. Seems like a shot like this would actually be a lot easier to do by hand since your subjects are likely to move quickly.
