Very cool shot and I love the vivid colors on the wasps and comb. The tones of the background are a distraction though. Have you considered possibly desaturating the background or burning it almost out? I don't remember whether the challenge would have allowed for that, but I think it might keep the viewer's focus on the subjects. Great contrast, focus, & DOF on the subjects.

The bees and honeycomb are contrasting, but for me the background lessens that contrast.

I don't really see a lot of high contrast between highlights and shadows. The hive is very busy, and DOF too shallow.

Nice photo, but not sure what is the high contrast here.
