A very nice capture, Love the angle on the bee. interesting shadows, The colors are lovely and so is the depth of field. Nice isolation of the flower.

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
This is truly beautiful E!
Focus is razor sharp on both the bee and flower.
White balance is controlled, POV and Placement within the frame are all superb.
Fine camera work E!
Good Luck!

Beautifully done, Eileen. Bee and flower in perfect unison of nature along with being photographed perfectly also in lighting, color, clarity and detail. Good luck in the contest.
Hope you got through the storm without any major problems.

thanks so much Ed. we got through very well.. how about you? Not having power was the worst thing in this heat though.

We got off easy. No power loss at all and lesser winds. Whew!

Eileen,
A beautiful picture of this Yellow Prickly Poppy Argemone Papaveraceae bathed in sunshine with the Honey Bee collecting pollen while casting it's shadow alongside the stamens on the petals beautifully framed by it's prickly foliage. Beautiful composition framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus. Good luck in the context.
