Hey that's me! I'm a boring little worker bee....but I like it. It amazes me at how your photos make the little hairs so vividly clear. I really like the orange. Our Maple trees have orange leaves, and add a great color to the landscape.

Another wonderful post Horia!

Very neat work.

This one is a difficult one to comment on as it is both wonderful in parts and not so in other parts. Let me explain.

Although it is a great composition and colourful capture, the sharpness is a mixed result here. The body of the bee is sharp at the bottom but certain parts of it are out of focus, including its head and eyes. The DOF is probably a bit too shallow here and f/10 would have worked better here in my humble opinion. This is a great shot though despite this minor quibble as you have got pretty close to the bee!

cheers,

Dilshan

Seara buna Monseir,
bine ca mai exista si cineva care sa munceasca in lumea asta, fara demonstratii, greve, si boicotari. Excelenta realizarea si redarea acestui "proces" de lucru.
Weekend placut,

Ciao Horia


Our bees are working well in this flower
bright red! Fabulous look!
The backlight makes the shine-through wings glow, enhancing colors and pattern ...
Well framed and a good 3D effect!

Hi Horia,
Beautiful blend of vibrant warm colours. It must have been pretty tricky getting the sharp details and good DOF and the same time.

Hello Horia,

Another fine close-up, where the bee and its flower are sharply focussed, capturing lovely details of shapes and the textures. The effects of the sunlight assist nicely in revealing the textures.
Excellent dof, creating a good bokeh.

A little centrally placed, but that's a small critique.

Kind regards,
Bev :-)
