Queen Bumblebee

I watched this bumblebee (Bombus lucorum?) collecting pollen in the spring sunshine from a willow behind the sand dunes at the North Gare, R. Tees estuary. Hand held, Sigma 50-500

Well I came home pleased as punch about the Macro shot I had just taken of a willow, that was until I looked at this. Just amazing, I hope you are really proud of this because I'm feeling just a little on the green side well done. Beautifully lit, well composed and throwing the bumblebee in as well. great shot.
