Oh, bummer for the bee :-( Very well captured and a quintessential slice of life in the bug world.

What gorgeous light. Masterful composition, and I particularly like the the hair wrapping around her wrist. Gives it a very subtle sense of serenity, likely the source of her ability to melt into the lens.

This is a beautiful piece of art. I have been visiting it and thinking about it since I saw it mentioned in the 1x thread. Exquisite use of light and form. It does, in a way, make me a bit sad on a personal level. Not only could I most likely never "see" how to shoot something like this, but I also realized (after watching too many episodes of a silly TV show) that the beauty of the model is integral to art like this. A shot like this, no matter how expertly lit or framed, would never see the light of day with someone like me as the model. Very selfish and silly, I know. :-) But it does make me envious, not just of your skill but of her light. She truly is gorgeous and you've done well by her.

This is such a good shot Paul, the fact that you only used natural light makes this hauntingly realistic and totally breathtaking.
