What a magnificent close up this would have been, I hope you did that too. As it is, it is kind of mundane due to the lack of detail in the swarm. Sorry.

This could be a very interesting subject. I don't think the centered composition was necessary the best bet for this shot, though. Perhaps getting quite a bit closer so we can see some of the details of the bees, and placing them in say the lower left corner with the majority of the frame being filled with the cinder block wall might have worked better. Of course, then you'd have had to risk getting stung!

Oooh stand back - no time to be getting the ultimate macro ;-)
Nice image, just needs some zap, some added lighting may help

I like how you can see the photographer (is it?) in the right catchlight. The little white spot near the right cheek is distracting, and can be either cloned or burned out. Also a little more space at the top to see more forehead would help, I think.

I like how you can see your reflection in your sisters eyes. Maybe just showing her eyes would be nice.

I really like this picture, very "in your face" , I'm drawn th the directness, the unapologetic detail and genuine emotion. Very nice.

Interestingly close composition. I would to have liked to see her forehead hairline at least. Cute subject though.

maybe a little too close for comfort
