Thanks Bob. She was so big it was difficult for her to take off with all that pollen.
What’s not to like ... an excellent macro of a worker bee collecting pollen on day shift ... .., I will critique with an edited version that I made by dipping your shot in a bath of 3 different photo programs ... it brings a little more contrast between the bee and its surroundings which are all yellows ... elevates selective colors and a little work on the eye .., yes I removed the yellow pollen spec from the eye ... which was both good and bad .. the pollen spec on the eye gave him personality ...and is what is natural for a bee as pollen sticks to everything .., but .., it detracts IMHO from the bees eyes ..
Anyway .., a great shot ..
A slight modification

Thanks Jay, glad you liked it.
I am about to launch my on line photo editing site .. “FOTOFIXXX.COM” through a German connection that allows large downloads Dr.nikon@gmx.com
I do a lot of free photo editing for photographers all over the world and a lot of Hogg’s ..Privately ...Some are photojournalists for magazines and others are on vacation or safari or just finished a wedding and need a 24 quick fix for instantly wanting to show their shot/s ...while still others want that extra editing before submitting for a contest etc.
My favorite part of photography is the Post Eding .. always has been ..your sea of yellow bee was a pleasure to work with as it was already an excellent shot .., .. I did a simple Editing .., about 10% of what I could have done ..
I was working off of my Special 65” 4K monitor ...
