Nice close up.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/17/2009 04:03:08 AM
Not in focus, and too much sharpening going on here. You need a better macro setup I think.

Lovely shot.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/16/2009 08:37:41 PM
Nice warm colors and good focus in areas. I your focus point would have been more on the bee. Nice job of filling the frame with the petals of the flower and good texture.

NIce shot... Looks like it was digitally zoomed, as the focus on the bee is a little soft.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/16/2009 04:31:50 PM
your bee isn't in clear sharp focus...very grainy
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Lovely detail. Color is great. Composition superb. What could be better? AND, I like bees. Among best in class.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Nice colours. These macro bee shots are always fun to get.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/15/2009 03:00:49 PM
over sharpened IMO
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/15/2009 12:43:30 PM
A little noisy but good attempt at macro.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/15/2009 11:59:39 AM
I like the composition. I wish the bee were in focus though.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/15/2009 10:11:19 AM
Nice macro
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/15/2009 04:16:21 AM
Wonderful details of the inside of a flower.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/15/2009 01:39:07 AM
This macro picture doesn't work, the insect is out of focus.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/15/2009 12:11:09 AM
Upsized/sharpened too much

Good colors, not sure about the focus...
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/14/2009 06:21:21 PM
Seems like the focus was on the flower instead of the bee. I'd like to see the bee more in focus. Nice framing!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/14/2009 06:04:22 PM
A classic shot well composed.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/14/2009 03:35:00 PM
Bright colors, a bit oversharpened
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/14/2009 12:17:52 PM
the focus on the bee is off. as I am not sure of your intention, it is tough to vote. For me , I would have tried to keep everything is sharp focus by focusing on the bee then hopefully using the appropriate aperture to get the flower sharp too.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/14/2009 11:24:00 AM
shame its blurry
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/14/2009 10:33:10 AM
Nice shot and composition, however the blur and grain in the bee are quite distracting.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/14/2009 09:23:40 AM
Great shot - only improvement here is the bee's head in the focal plane a touch more.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/14/2009 07:02:49 AM
nice macro, beautiful background color
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2009 11:38:24 PM
Beautiful capture, although the image itself looks like it was either made with a fairly low resolution camera or was blown up too much or maybe it is a small portion of a large image (I don't know). It has a fair bit of digital noise. The colours are very beautiful though!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2009 04:08:30 PM
Too much noise (heavily cropped?) to score really well here, I think, but I like the colors very much.

Not voting yet.

The bee is a little soft but I really like the color in this and the detail in the pollen. Nice capture! 7
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2009 03:04:08 PM
A little more focus would have definitely make this a more interesting photo to look at. I love the gradient of the color on the petals.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2009 03:02:27 PM
The colors are very pretty. However, I would have liked to have seen the bee in focus in this capture.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2009 02:24:58 PM
Great capture, but something went haywire in the processing. It's really chunky and most of the detail is gone.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2009 02:10:10 PM
OOF
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2009 02:07:58 PM
The Flower is in focus (maybe just a wee over-sharpened) but the bee is OOF. Nice colors, though.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2009 12:19:56 PM
The overall focus seems a little off, or the image quality is way low. Is it a small crop of a much larger shot?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2009 03:50:58 AM
nice macro work
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/12/2009 10:03:46 PM
Your composition and colours are great. It's just a pity about the focus .
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/12/2009 08:12:09 PM
a bit to noisy
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/12/2009 06:49:56 PM
Great effort - it's just not quite sharp enough.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/12/2009 05:16:32 PM
OOF and a bit too saturated.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/12/2009 04:36:51 PM
too pixelated :(
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/12/2009 02:16:45 PM
Way too noisy, and the subject looks rather out of focus.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/12/2009 01:03:20 PM
good attempt, but the bee is really out of focus and image seems a bit noisy /5
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/12/2009 12:00:35 PM
nice picture but very noisy
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/12/2009 10:05:55 AM
This is way to blurry...
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/12/2009 01:29:48 AM
a fifth bee for the challenge????
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/12/2009 12:34:01 AM
beautiful colors and nice composition but the softness really takes away from the photo
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 11:10:01 PM
Nice capture, the grain and or noise hold this back
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 04:29:24 PM
Detail in the flower is good, but the bug seems a little out of focus.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 02:57:58 PM
Unfortunate the bee bzzzzzzn't in focus - nice composition and colors.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 12:16:48 PM
too bad the bee is a little soft, otherwise it would have been a great macro.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 10:46:42 AM
Could be a little sharper overall.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 08:33:26 AM
A little over pixelized for me but I love the crop.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 07:43:39 AM
Flower detail is good. Be needs to be sharper.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 04:32:34 AM
All the pollen looks great
