yes, Lydia, your silliness often makes me laugh - but I think it bee-comes you!
And the detail here is amazing - love the wings.

Sorry Penny. LOL! I used to have "Bee Happy" entered (with a girly pink border for Rod). It's in Pending now. Then, when I entered this one, I named it "Bee Happier". Silly... I know. *grin* ~Lydia

You pictured this bee in a setting that makes it look so harmless and fragil. That's my girly comment. -COAmature

I like the bee's wing movement. and good macro too.
ctfchallenge21-Jun-2008 22:42
LOL @ you guys and the border. *grin*

I reworked it with a better crop and you're right, of course. Much better with more space for him to fly into. ~Lydia

Lydia, I agree that this is the better of the two. I love the color tones, pastels with the green background. Nice how the bee is your only black, making it stand out. Great time of year for these shots!! Well done!

You are never going to talk the guys into the border on the other one Lydia! I like this one best- nice details.

These suckers are tough to capture. You did great. -RK

i like the angle, movement, background, and especially the exposure more in this one. nice! -Abstract

I like the motion of the wings better in this one but the crop is better in the other. This might look better compositionally to me if there were a bit more space at the bottom so the bee wasn't so centered horizontally. Very nice and sharp image and with those great colors it's very eye-catching! :-) CJ

This is much more to me taste & the manly black border looks........well manly:-) The bee looks much better for the topic & visually in this picy. Nicely done megirl.

I think this one actually shows the movement better - but I prefer your previous shot compositionally.
