Thank you to all the voters and commenters! I don't have a lot of experience with macro photography, so you know I'm overjoyed with how well it did, and with such praise from IreneM. This was one of maybe 20-30 shots of just this bee (itself one of many that I chased around), and really the only one that was in focus and had an acceptable amount of motion blur (there is some visible at 100%). The composition was mostly achieved through cropping, since I had little time to compose while shooting.
