Honey Bee Up Close and Personal

This is an old pic that I had pulled off my Flickr page to show to somebody, it really has to be downloaded and enlarged to be fully appreciated. Live bee that I baited with sugar syrup to get this shot as well as several others.

This is an exceptional picture. Things to look for are the fine hairs on the compound eyes, and the branching hairs on the body. Those are hard to catch and its all there. Well done.

What Canon camera body and lens did you use ??
Excellent shot. Although this critter needs a shave and a haircut !!

Camera was a 50D, the lens was a 28mm film era lens, probably a Minolta Celtic reversed on tubes.

Thanks everyone for your kind comments, and a special thanks for the link to the "Blues" artist, my favorite genre of music.
