Fabulous detail!!! For me I like the negative space at the top, accentuates how the Bee is hanging on so tightly!!! Well done Jack!

Is a perfect macro insect you did here with very carefully composition done,so good choice for yellow blur back light(maybe a flower)and rest of green,but for sure main subject is so well seen with details impossible to see with naked eyes.I do not know who can appreciate with so low rates this photo that has lot of work on it and excellent result,this  people for sure didn't make ever this kind of photo to see how ''easy''is to do it but most of all to get result so good as here.You have my compliments for this macro and a 7.

ps.I saw you used 100mm macro,but I am still very curious how you got so good clarity on main subject when range of this is very short(one or more shots?)If possible give me a message,I am very curious.

Hi All,

Really appreciate you valuable comments and participation of rating. 

As Radu gussed, this image is stacked to achieve full range of focus. 

Because of full range focus, a higher level of sharpness can be selected when post-processing this image without being looking awkward. Furthermore, avoid using small aperture can improve the image resolution as well as the image quality.

Cheers,

Shu-Shin

Hi Shu, I'm speechless with this excellent macro. All I can say is WOW! WOW! AND WOW! I love macro photography , and yours is amazing!. This is a superb photo full of details, lovely background,  and sharpness is perfect.

I agree with Radu, I cannot understand why people come and rate this work lower than 7. For me is not 7 it's 10, not discussion at all!!! I would like to read the explanations of those who give you lower than 7.

Warmest regards,

LuDa
