Got some Bees this weekend. Open to comments. These were all done without a tripod.

No. 5 stands out the most for me.

When the bee is heading in a direction, often not centrally framing it and giving it some more space in the direction its heading make for a more dynamic photo...

Im loving the green background's, makes the flower stand out more and highlights the bee. in macro the background is just as important as the foreground.

Well done!

I really like 5 as well. It's a nice clear view, at an interesting angle. I also like the colors. A couple of the others seem a bit to dark. I'm impressed at the clarity without a tripod. I have tried shooting macros without a tripod, and the majority of my shots are blurred ever so slightly. Well done.
