With the cactus still in bloom these fast moving bees love them. This was croppped 1:1
The flower was pretty red, should I tone it down some

Great photo, Dean. Looks like this guy is totally going to town stirring up all the pollen. Wonderful detail in the bee and the red flower set off the bee very nicely.
Very nice, Dean. I love how he is coming up out of the flower and you were able to capture him face on. The square crop works nicely. The red flower looks good on my monitor. You captured some nice details in the bee. Love those eyes.
