Impromptu Bee's...

[Daysleeper40]

I went out looking for a Autumn Landscape shot for the POTY competition this morning. That didn't go so well but I did stumble upon an unexpected little patch of wild flowers. Impromptu Bee shoot ensued...

C&C always welcome. I have not done any macro stuff for ages. All shot on my Nikon D7000 and Tamron 90mm macro. VERY changeable light made it challenging and the breeze didn't help much either!

Thanks for looking

Nice set there Fi with some really good colours and cropping to give them better composition.

Really nice set, lighting on these is beautiful and natural. Number two looks a bit too noisey for my tastes, but some careful noise reduction could help here. The others don't suffer so badly from this, but again some selective NR might help improve them. Some nice details and poses from the model

Thank you both - I agree re the noise on the second which is a shame. I have to say the model(s) were not that obliging - had to wait an age for them to be in a suitable 'pose' !!

Nice to see bees in late October!
