Hi guys,

Am back after nearly two years of absence. I've been trying out my new EF 100mm f/2.8 USM Macro lens and I'ld really like to get some thoughts on the shot. Who's willing to help me out ?

I'm still finding my way around DPC; just now realised it would be nice to let you guys know "thanks for your comments !". I really appreciate the input I am getting here.
I actually feel 'challenged' for the first time in many years of photo-hobbyism to do better, to learn, to think creative and make that shot stand out from the millions of photos that by now have been posted on the net.
Thanks for the inspiration and critiques ! :D

I have to first ask, "what did you envision as the subject?". It's a bit of a rhetorical question since it is obvisously the bee. Nevertheless, the flower does jump out at the viewer, taking the attention off the bee somewhat. How about a tighter crop (or capturing a closer image), which isoloates the bee while putting it in a "rule of thirds" layout? Maybe something like this (but larger).
