Another solitary bee that I found sleeping in the heart of this flower and woke it up so I could get few images -didn't stay put for very long. The flower acts as both a blanket and an alarm clock -when the temperature is high enough for the flower to open then it's probably high enough for the bee to get active.

Tech specs: Canon 40D (F13, 1/250, ISO 100) + a Canon MPE-65mm macro lens (@3x) + a diffused MT-24EX macro twin flash (-2/3 FEC).

Oh wow! You got it dead straight XD I must say the darkness of the background really adds to the atmosphere! You're very brave to get so close to wasps and bees and such stuff, don't you get stung?
