Very nice steve. So was this handheld with a diffused flash? What shooting techniques would you recommend to get the focus right (burst firing)? Will have to give macro a go in the very near future.

A fantastic shot, I agree all of the above comments. One of the best Bee macro images I have seen; face to face!
