Description
This summer I found out that it is not easy to get extreme macro shots of bees.
They are constantly moving and with limited depth of field...(plus the fact that I didn't like the idea of getting stung)...it makes them a real challenge.
This is only one of two images out of about a hundred that turned out OK....Hope you like it.
Looks like this guy needs a shave....

I know how hard it is to get those things to sit still. I wouldn't want to get stung either. Fantastic macro. Well worth all the shots you took of it. Aloha

Superb shot buddy! Love the details in this and yeah from the goes I've had at macro photography of bees it's mighty hard (and I wasn't working with the magnification u got here) Awesome work as always! Hope you keeping well there.

Almost every day over the past several months, I find a few dead bees on my patio and in my pool. I hope they overcome whatever is doing them in. Very good macro shot John.
