I like the movement of the wings. Very nice. Britt

Nice Trumpet Vine pic. Didn't know there was a creeper type. Really like the bee in flight. Saw the two in Pending, I prefer the one with the dodged stem as opposed to the 'suspended in mid-air' one.

I've posted two in Pending for comparison. I can't do much well in pp yet, but cloning and dodging seem to come naturally to someone trained in painting. -tv

Thanks -TV for the detailed comments. I pp'd on the stem. You were right.

I'm tired of routine flower pics, so this one is a welcome change. Sharp focus is just where needed on the pedal tips, and the background nicely accentuates them. Good triangular composition as well except for the somewhat distracting stem. Hope you don't mind all this detail - just thinking out loud. To me the ants add some secondary interest and the bee just misses being a star attraction. -tv
