Nice job on all of these. the last two are my favorites. What kind of flower is that? would love to see the whole flower if you get a chance never seen one like that.

Awesome macros, Joel. Really like the one of the fly...such clarity on that head. Great work...sure wish I'd started at 15. All I took back then were Polaroid snapshots. We will not discuss how long ago that has been.:D

I'm with Mary - won't talk about how long ago we were using Polaroids. I also remember the old Kodak Brownie.

Well, poppycock...I'd forgot about that one, Debbie! Thanks for the trip down memory lane.:D:D

You are so welcome - and I'm younger than you!

Great photo's. I love the bee's. I hope you don't mind, I worked a little PP on one of them to bring out the subject more. I lightened it a little and cropped it a bit. I just took out a little of the photo that wasn't needed. I love the depth of field and how you isolated the flower and Bee. Great!

Thanks for the comments everyone.

The flower is a bottle brush. I attached a photo of the tree.
