I was trying to take some pics of these ants carrying sticks and they came out like crap. But on the way home I took a couple of bee shots.
Here is the best one. C and C welcome.

Composition is nice. Try to focus on the eyes. Although in this POV of the bee it would be tough. Looks good, keep plugin' away!
