Description I just got a REALLY cool camera. And I realize everybody and their brother goes and takes macro photos of random insects and so forth, and my photography is basically enthusiastic amateur naturalism rather than art, and I should be saying many intelligent things about color and composition as befits a painter but frankly most of my brain is screaming OH MY GOD, I CAN SEE THE BITS OF POLLEN ON HIS LITTLE FEELERS so...uh...yeah.

He's a cute little bee. Different than the buckfast bees that we have (from the beekeeper's hives) around here, but still cute. Nice work to capture it, they don't always hang out long enough to get a good look like that.

Bees would be so drat cute if they didn't hurt so bad.

Amazing shot. :3 I love your enthusiasm -- I prefer that over hearing/reading some professional's babbling about something I don't understand. DX

Just one comment here - (I'll be quite again after that, I swear!)

The photo might look better if you didn't crop it so closely. There isn't any "breathing space", and it throws off the balance of the image.

You should know that!

Yes, everybody takes macro pictures when they get a cool camera. Everybody also drinks water when they're thirsty. It's how we are.

Bees are fuzzy...I keep forgetting. Normally when I see a bee I go the other direction.

Bees are so cute and fuzzy, especially bumblebees. I like to stare at them while they collect pollen. XD

Actually, I think this is a really nice macro shot. And if it makes you feel any better, I recently got a new camera too and have been taking random macro shots. Haven't uploaded any to dA yet, but I just might

What kind of camera? I want one. My camera sucks. And I want to take better pictures of the preying mantis that's been living in my rose tree for the last week and a half.

Lovely vibrant colors.

It looks like she's deep in the hunt for those powdery pollen morsels.
