Amazing flower. It's stamen is incredible. Great photo. The bee helps with perspective. 10/10

Generally, not my cup of tea, but I must admit #13 stood out among the entries.

There are great photos, but there is one above and beyond all others. #10
.

Photography on all is great. Subject matter on #10, and photography is greater/greatest.

Incidentally, since I am an avid rose gardener, and roses are the queen of flowers, I thought about entering. But, the fact I don't get honey bees or other interesting pollinators on roses, and am not a great photographer, combined to spell doom for me, and so I knew I could not compete with a honey bee, if someone caught a honey bee like #10. #10 has everything. Honey bee, great flower, great color, all in spectacular focus.

Seriously, number 10!? It's nice but there's too much going on - all the disctracting background elements. I agree with 13 but then there was 7, 8, 9 which were far better than 10 and they received very few votes. Oh yeah, whatever!
