This is really nice there Jim, wonderful details on both the bee and the spider, especially the spider being as it is quite small. Really a good job on this one. :D

Thanks Joan and Ken,, things are becoming more active around here, I noticed a big change today when I was out. Ots funny, neither the bee or spider showed any interest or concern for either one.

Nicely done, both subjects are decently sharp. Did both parties get out of this with no injuries? :?

Really, really excellent shot Jim. The lighting looks as though it could even be evening with the glow this seems to have. sharp and showing great details. Wonderful to have both in this shot, really appealing in the comp as well.

All the best Jim, nice shot and work.

Worry about the image that comes out of the box, rather than the box itself.

An excellent pair on one flower. Both are in focus and I agree on the lighting. Makes it look like the last late afternoon food rush.

Danny,, you are absolutely correct, this was shot in the afternoon at about 4:30, I alomost didnt go out for a shoot because it was somewhat windy, just goes to show ya, you never know :wink:

Thanks for commenting Doug, late afternoon lighting here with no flash, I was in pretty close when that bee flew in,, kinda startled me :lol:
