Hi, Bryan -
Not sure if your new toy is the camera or the lens, but whichever it is, it gave you a great result here. The fine details are outstanding and the colors are eye-grabbing. Nice job to see and capture this scene - the two fat, colorful bees look amazing scrambling over the faces of these flowers. Well done.

HAHA! Brilliant Bryan! You got two for one! Very nice and sharp, very colorful. I love the warm atmosphere you added to the shot! Nice work!

Very nice job on this B, with your new toy! Colors are vivid, everything seems to be nice and sharp, and the DOF is nice .. nice blurred background. Funny that the bees have a blue/purple tinge to them!

Hi Bryan,
Well done on the macro! Excellent colors, great title and overall good control of your settings. I love the brightness and tones in this. Well done and TFS Julie

Bryan, well done, very well done! Much better than some of your previous flower photos. This one has excellent sharpness and definition and the perspective, sharpness, colour saturation and definition is great!! The more you use your new "toy" the better you get with time. Keep shooting and keep posting.

Cheers, JoeGoff, Louisville, KY

Hi Bryan,
