Really nice shot. The light, detail, and colors are well done.

This is just about as perfect a shot of a flying honeybee as a person could expect to get!
And the Rose of Sharon flower is interesting to me; I've heard of them, but have never seen one--at least knowing what it was.
Glad to see it!
Angky.

Very cool, Al. Like a micro world, operating separately from the world we wrestle with daily.

Thank you Angky! They are pretty shrubs related to Hibiscus . I have white ones and Purple here in our yard. They do have a darker side.. They spread like a weed. For us thats okay.. My red footed tortoises love their leaves and flowers.

Appreciate that Todd! It was an unbelievably calm day so I think that helped.

Thanks Jer and Agree! Macro images are like another world, and we only graze the tip of it.
