Re: Sleeping Bee
A work of art!
Maybe a black and white conversion?

Re: Sleeping Bee
Thank you, Mark, but your kind comment is undeserved.
Confession time: I never saw the bee until running the stack on the computer. Not long after dawn, the Althea bloom was found low to the ground, not fully opened, and I was intrigued by the radial pattern of the 5 petals and determined to shoot it on the basis of that. As the stack processed, I saw the bee emerging, which was exciting in the way that watching photographic prints develop used to be, but with the extra kick of serendipity.
You probably know this, but Sleeping Bee (or Sleepin' Bee) is an old jazz classic, in the repertoire of many great singers.
