Very nice photograph. The pale yellow of the plant , the black and orange of the bees, and the reddish brown of the plant's attachment contrast well with the brilliant blue sky. Excellent placement of subjects as well as focus. They look like they had no clue you were there. Well done!

Really pretty sharp details of the foreground with a lot of texture that provides good interest to the photo. Good detail on bees with nice blue sky providing nice contrast. Like the opacity of the bee wings too. Great storytelling potential.

when I saw the first smaller picture I thought this was going to be an underwater shot with coral and divers..then I read the title and had to look properly.. I'm intreaged as to what the plant is? Really cool capture ...I like.

    Thank you very much. Sorry for being late. The Plant is a Fan Palm Tree. The blossoms are just opening.

Great angle for this shot, not your typical bee image. So good job. Great strong colors. His eyes have turned out really well! Best of luck in the contest.

Amazing blue.
I would have cropped in closer and concentrated on the fly to the right.
It seems so sharp and the young shoots around it look really interesting.

This looks like a very good capture of these bees... Or at least the front bee anyway.
The focus looks VERY good!
The front bee has a bit of shading going on but no points off for that.
Very nice!
Good luck in the contest!
