Stunning shot. Love the crisp details and excellent timing.
Wish you luck.

I'm guessing you had a very uncooperative model. Love the flowers - I can almost smell them.

Mrsawyer, I used histogram to get more brightness to the photo. I now tried to use the automatic white balance and got the flowers bright white, but the colors of the bee were not so good, I think. Maybe the flowers were not so white actually.

I forgot to ask, what did Histogram do for you on this photo?

A fine capture, though it would have been nice to see the other end of the bee! My main concern is that the photo has a green cast to it. To test it, I downloaded your photo and adjusted the white balance and was quite pleased with the result. Try it and see what you think.

Lovely detail! That bee must think he's died and gone to heaven!
