2014/2013/ 2012 macros insects Time To Get Out Of The Sun! - (enlarge)

You each had such encouraging comments, and I am pleased that you enjoyed this composition. Thank you so much for taking the time to share your input with me!

Beat always, Gail

So glad you are here once again Bela, 'Hello Honey' sounds just fine! Happy you enjoyed this image.

My sincere thanks for your visit and kind critique, glad you enjoyed the image!

Thankyou for that lovely comment Chuck - although I wouldn't want this fella flying in your ear!!! So nice to hear from you!

Very, very nicely composed and assembled.  When I saw this I thought "This is a Bee-House, Bee-Ware" would be an apt title...  The 3D effect screams STAY BACK!

Your love of nature, coupled with your keen eye have done it again... created a masterpiece.

Thanks so very much for that enthusiastic critique, you are so kind. I enjoyed working on this one Dave.

Original and creative presentation!

 

Wonderful macro shot. Super treatment - really effective. Great!

A real eye grabber. Love the dimension you created here with the choice of color for the frame. It all works Gail! What an artist you are!

I remember when you were struggling with your new macro lens and have to say you've come a long way since then. Now it just seems to be another tool in your considerable tool box. I didn't care too much for the framing on the "Spiderman" picture since it didn't seem to fit the very contemporary appearance of the little hero but here your framing choices are right on the money. The bee's wings projecting into the frame gives you the feeling that he's about to escape from the screen and go buzzing by your ear.

You are right about the frame of my little 'spidey boy'. I realize that in retrospect. I still struggle with the 100mm at times. This shot was taken in 2008!!! I was having a fabulours day with that lens!!! Glad you like the effect I was trying to make with this frame Jack, many thanks for dropping by. Always appreciate your thoughts.

Your kind remarks do encourage me, and I do appreciate you taking the time to drop by Robert. See you and your lovely birds again soon!!!

many thanks Pat for your visit and enthusiastic remarks, truly appreciate your support!

many thanks Grigoriy for dropping by and sharing your input, truly appreciate your support.

It is very impressive that it has the 3D effect.  it is coming out of the frame.  Great.  Best Regards,

your encouraging words really inspire! many thanks! Gail
