Description

I was baiting honeybees in a passion flower and some of the bait ran down to the end of one of the leaves. This female honeybee thought she could get the bait and avoid my camera :)

A very beautiful image, with very clean colors. There's not too much going on, so have to look at the little scene that is playing out before you. In all it's simplicity I think this creates quite a striking image. Visually I think this photograph is perfect ^^

I 'only' gave you 3 stars for originality, because to be fair, there are quite a lot of macro pictures of bees on DA and the rest of the internet. However, to be fair, only a very small portion of these are of the quality (both technical and emotional) that is provided here.

I am very impressed by your dedication. It must have taken quite some patience to sit there waiting for the perfect shot.

Keep up the good work!
