Bumblebee

This is a shot of a Male Pratorum Bumblebee that I took yesterday in strong sunlight whilst testing out a new Diffuser, A Lumiquest Softbox on a 430 EX Flash.

Wow! That is beautiful. I've yet to get a decent shot of a bumblebee.

The lumiquest softbox is fantastic though, isn't it?

Shame about that bright white area- spoils an otherwise good shot
