Hi :) this is a photo I took at my parents bach. I call it "Bumble Bee Blues" mainly because the day was cold and, well you know the saying, "when you're feeling blue". I think this photo represents a day when you're feeling under the weather, but you still have to go out there and work, work, work, because you have to. At least that is what I feel about this photo. It may be different for you :D Hope you like it :)

 

That looks pretty sweet.

Good job on the focus, I don't see any blurring on the actual subject material. However poor use of composition, why smack dab in the middle if its a horizontal picture? I feel that you could have gotten a much more interesting angle, and push the focal point on the bee rather than the whole thing.

 

Kudos though, at least it didn't fly away.

I'm not sure if it's actually me but the bee just seems slightly out of focus.

Thanks everyone =D It was pretty hard to get it focused in time before the bee flew away, but I admit I could have done better. The flower and bee are slightly out of focus, more so the flowers :( Shin you bring up an excellent point. I didn't even think of taking the photo vertically o_O darn lol. It would have made more sense, with the stalk being vertical and all. Oh well =l

 

I wanted to catch a bumble bee in mid flight too XD that would have been epic. The funny thing is, I'm actually afraid of bees+wasps (long story) but when it comes to taking photos of them I don't mind \:D/

Just one more point to add, the blue flower to the right is slightly distracting too.

It is slightly out of focus, but it is a nice image. Again, the composition is fairly boring. Can't really say much.

Heh, in my opinion the composition is good, but the it's out of focus.

 

I really like the colours though - Keep up the good work! :)
