Some images I've nerver processed, and some that I've re-processed.
Male Spotted Eye Drone (male because the eyes are touching at the top of the head -the female's eyes are separated). I was out on a walk with my Mrs. a few days ago and saw several feeding on some flowers and they were so docile I could touch them before they took off -of course I didn't have my camera ... Around life size:

Last spring when I shot these Miner Bees I was using a diffuser that proved to be way too warm -yellows came out an almost dark orange. I've played with the white balance in post and I still don't know if I've got it right. Another example of why you should get it right when you press the shutter release... From 2x to 4x:
