Hi Sharron, So how many images did you take before you got this one. This is excellent catching the Bee in flight and so sharp. DOF is good putting background out of focus. You must be pleased with this shot, I know that I would be .

Thank you Barry. More luck than judgment!. Did a lot of work to the background as the original although out of focus was distracting. Took this last year and only just got round to working on it.

I know what you mean, I have still got loads of photos that I need to return to, it is just a matter of time and remembering .

Really sharp shot Sharon, even the wings are sharp, did you use a macro lens for this?

Hi Jason, think it was on my old sigma medium telephoto lens on my old camera (400D). I had taken a dozen or so and just happened to catch this. This is zoomed on the original shot and then cropped. Thank you for your comment
