The bee in the first images seems to be so possessive of its pollen. Nice angle with the last one haha. Beautiful macro shots!

Default Thanks

Thanks for all the feedback
I didn't want to miss the first shot so i didn't have time to change my settings, i think its a bit underexposed, turns out the bee wasn't going anywhere for a while :P

Wow, these shots are so good I'm probable seeing parts of a bee I have no business seeing.

Nice photos. I really like the third one. I think you are being "mooned" in the last one.

very nice the last one is my favourite as it has the best contrast in colours.
