Is it Safe Yet?!

Description

As this little bee started moving it seemed like it was trying to figure out what I was.

Tech Specs: Canon 70D (F11, 1/250, ISO 200) + a Canon MP-E 65mm macro lens (2x) + a diffused MT-24EX (both flash heads on Kaiser adjustable flash shoes). This is a single, uncropped, frame taken hand held.

Technique: I don't know why, but sometimes a bee's metabolism will tank. This flower was in the shade, and maybe the transition from being in the sun to being on the flower was enough to cause the critter's metabolism to drop. But whatever the reason the bee allowed me to get close enough for this shot. As the bee started to get active I looked for different compositions.
