A different version of from the ground up. The focus is on the bee at ground level, but moving up the picture you follow the trees and the cloud to the right keeps your eye from leaving. I would give this an 11 if I could.
WOW!!! My first reaction was, "Ooh, MAN!!!!" But that's 'cause this just kinda blows mine right off the map, dammit!!!! 8 Great DOF, angle, perspective, lighting, colors......I HATE you! LOL!!!
I like the intent and idea very much. But for me there is just a little to much blurred in this photo, I seem to lose the bee. Maybe if the bee was against the blue so it popped a bit more.
