While my wife was visiting with her mother, I was outside creating images of the abundant Bumble bees that were harvesting pollen from he mother's flower garden.

I wish the bee was sharper in this image, but its what I got. Taken with a EOS 7D, EF 200 f/2.8 lens with a 20mm extension tube so I could get a bit closer than normal.

I can't see a photo either. I clicked on your "Aboutme" link and learned that you are a "Master Naturalist and Outdoor Photographer". Congratulations on becoming master! ;) I'm looking forward to seeing your work. :)

I too have taken pictures of bees. Apparently the OP has mastered the art of the 'invisible' bee. For his efforts I award him a 10/10 for composition, but a 8.5/10 for focus issues.
