Thank youBee on a spring beauty. wow, it just doesn't get any better than this. 2 of my favorite early spring sights.
Thank you. It’s a interesting bee. Never seen one this color before.Outstanding! The colors are really unique and eye-catching. My wife called it "delicate".
Great shots, Steven. That was also my first reaction to the image.Thank you. It’s a interesting bee. Never seen one this color before.
I was shooting handheld. I do about half of my macro handheld. If I’m focus stacking or using flash, I’ll typically use a tripod. I wasn’t expecting this shot and just fired a 10 shot burst.Great shots, Steven. That was also my first reaction to the image.
May I ask if you were shooting hand held? I have been pushing myself to do more macro and closeup work on a tripod, and as I suspected, it has been both challenging and fun. Trying to learn from my mistakes and from the work of others as I can.
Thanks,

I used to shoot my close-up images handheld, but as I am getting closer to 1:1 I have been trying to work with a tripod. It is a whole different way of shooting and visualizing the shot. Not necessarily better or worse, just different.I was shooting handheld. I do about half of my macro handheld. If I’m focus stacking or using flash, I’ll typically use a tripod.

I’ve not either and I decided to snap away to try to capture it. It’s certainly unusual and I can’t find an identification for it.The bee is as pretty as the flower. Never saw a bee like this.
I certainly like using a tripod especially for stationary insects and flowers but I wasn’t even expecting to do any macro type shooting during this venture.
