My macro lens is a sigma 50mm 2.8 ex/dg lens, which I like a lot:

Bart, that is one of the nicest macros that I have seen in a long time, thanks for posting it.

Thank you all for your kind and positive replies, you make me blush

I am glad my input receives these positive reviews

scott-devon · 09-15-2009, 09:38 AM

Absolutely wonderful shot, the detail and colour are amazing.

cyy47 · 09-15-2009, 02:39 PM

It takes guts to get this close. I would be afraid she may sting at any moment.

Bud · 09-15-2009, 02:46 PM

Fantastic shot, Bart! Colors, detail... very nice.

Do we win a prize if we guess the number of bee hairs correctly? I'm pretty sure that they're clear and sharp enough to be counted

**Ash** · 09-15-2009, 04:11 PM

Award-winning capture there.
Did you crop this shot?
I can't imagine how close you must have been to the bee using a 50mm lens...
