    Nice capture Brian,try backing off a tad in the highlights as it looks a touch on the bright side to me!

    Good capture Brian, as David has mentioned there's a few highlights there but we can't always choose the lighting, unfortunately.

    Hi Brian,I'm not a macro shooter at all but I agree with the above comments about highlights.With some edit the image might look better,I like the posture of the bee
