		| 5 - Good potential.  Criticism; sharper on the 'fore parts' of the bee, as seems to be on the far wing, etc and a tweaking of the lighting/contrast (which may not be needed if the focal point was adjusted), may have made this better in my opinion.  Just noticed the purple/lavender in the background/bokeh, perhaps framing this with more height, to incorporate more of that, may also have given this something extra.  Even just the lavender (with the same focus/sharpness/detail issues), without the bee, make for another (albeit different) good shot, in my opinion. |

		| Great picture. Love the colors. With greater focus on the eye instead of the body, you would have really nailed this shot!  But it's still outstanding none-the-less.  Nice job! |

		| Lovely composition. Beautiful colors. Wish the focus had been on the bee's head rather than her abdomen.  Seems to be a harsh transition from 'in focus' to 'out of focus' - looks a tad overprocessed, maybe. |
