Hi Dean, I like your picture very much, you have chosen the best moment, the bumble has a good sharpness, in particular the wings.
The colors are naturel, the background has a right blur. Maybe will a crop left and right makes your picture focus more at the bumble.
Excellent, Dean. That bumblebee is incredibly sharp. I could see playing with the crop, but this one works well for me. You might want to play with bringing up the shadows a bit, particularly on the bee.
Super nice, Dean. You captured it where the bee’s eye shows between the flower. It could use some brightening, as @Dennis_Plank mentioned. That is one sharp bee. As @HennyJA mentioned, the BG has a nice blur. I think when you bring up the shadows on the bee it will stand out even better. So are you getting bees to photograph this time of year? That would sure be nice.
This is a great shot Dean. Amazing detail in the fur. Nice colors and really nice blurred BG. I really like the eye between the petals getting into the nectar here.
Thank you for the feedback, @Shirley_Freeman , @Dennis_Plank , @Ed_Williams , @HennyJA. I was attracted to the eye as well in this photo. I made a couple of changes that I believe helped using your feedback.
