Not a bug fan either, but a great picture is a great picture.
Best wishes,

This is wonderful, as well as the fantastic sharpness of the Bee and it's beautiful wings, it's a lovely composition.

Nice sharp macro shot, good colours and composition. But I tried to tinker the level of the 'shadows' and/or 'blak point'.

Those top down shots are so difficult to get looking good, but this is a very nice background and the wings stand out really nicely. It would be nice to lighten the eyes and back a little.

Thankyou Trixie, I can see what you mean about the glass comparison.
