OMGoodness this is such an exquisite capture ... the bee ... the colour ... framing flower. Perfect moment captured in timeAustralian bush bee/ native bee. I've posted this species before. They are native to Australia and are much smaller than the introduced European honeybee, not very good fliers (they remind me of woodstock from Peanuts flying) and have larger eyes and are quite cute. The flower it is sitting on we call pigface and is a succulent which we find near the coast and I look for when looking for a type of peacock spider. Very strong vibrant magenta/purple colours on the flower which make a nice stage for an subject.

Great stack A Andy W! post it in here https://macroderie.com/forums/stacked-pictures.66/ and we can give you a detailed opinion or critique. This thread here is more for leaving an image with some information but not so much for replies (threads with the green "Opened Theme" tag fall into the category), so you are more than welcome to leave this photo here but in depth opinion or critiques are for the link I've given you. Hope to see you there so we can give you some more feedbackCarpenter Bee. I found this poor bee in the gutter, dead. It was still a beauty, so I took it home and photographed it.
