Great shot! but it is a honey bee, but a bee fly (hover fly, flower fly, family Syrphidae). They mimic bees...(notice their short antenna and only one pair of wings)

I like the dark background and how the flash stopped the little guy's action. My favorite of the four.

Nice nice.. I really like the composition and how he is hanging from the left top corner of the frame. Also the background is completely gone and really makes this guy pop out. Very nice!
