Salam Foozi: This is a superb bee shot perched on this white flower. The petals are amazing and the shallow focus is dreamy. Diagonal placement of the bee fits nicely in a balanced framing. Best regards. Jusni

Salam Foozi,

Lovely shot here with beautiful details and sharpness on offer. Good DOF with interesting central composition with the bee in the frame. Great capture of light penetrating through the translucent wings of the bee, Although you have gone for slight under exposure here- it works well to preserve the highlights that normally OE white petals against darker inner flower structures. Wonder how this shot would have looked had you chosen Spot metering. May have revealed more details of the bee's eyes with some mild fill in flash. Just a suggestion. Nice shot though my friend and thank you fir sharing this wonderful shot. Have a great day!

cheers,

Dilshan

dear Foozi,
this delicate gradation from white to yellow on petals is very graceful.
the figure of flower is very attractive for us and of course for this bee. the pretty little bee fits well it.
a little dark tone of colors is also fits this tender atmosphere very well.
thank you,
Akihisa

Hello Luis,

we are to be discussed here around our and other photos and to get suggestions and to exchange opinions.

I find to the picture something is simply absent certain.

If one sees against it your picture - Autum in Chelo - a difference like day and night

Bonjour Foozi.
Un bon cadrage qui met en valeur la mouche qui se trouve au centre de la fleur.
La douceur des couleurs est bien adaptée, mais supporterait encore un peu plus de luminosité.
Les détails sont aussi très bons et permettent une bonne observation.
Bonne journée.
Urs

Hi Foozi,

I don't know how I missed this nice macro!
I like th great white dahlia with a bee as a bonus :) The sharpness is crisp and the colors are perfect. The POV and DOF are very well done. the central part of the flower, is indeed interesting to have a kind of extra amount of light...superb.

very well done, my friend.

best,
paras

Hello Foozi,

The petals of the white flower are delightfully captured, showing shade, waxy textures and curled form, without any evidence of oe.
The insect, although having a lovely reflection on its wings, does seem a little underexposed. I suppose that's easy to do when trying to prevent oe on the petals.

Have a good w/e,
Bev :-)

HI Foozi
Not an easy one to get but you managed the flower well with its detailed petals being so sharp while the bee kept buzzing not co operating as well but you did great.
