Wow Bernie. These are great. Even with the shallow DOF you've got the important parts of that pesky little bugger nice and sharp. Ones to be proud of.

You have excelled with these shots Bernie - but, a question, is that a new colour bandage on the critters leg

thats what caught my eye....... who knows where he has been, but the colour was very bright and living in the country, it could be long range tanks

That little bee has been one busy critter. I think that orange thing is pollen of some sort. These pics are stunning!

Excellent macros.

That pollen ball is a remarkable colour, not to mention pretty big, and the bee has to lug it all the way back to the hive..

Not usually really a huge macro fan but these ones are great especially for available light! Well captured and timed Bernie

Bernie,
I don't know how I missed this one. Brilliant images, especially the second one.
