Wow, another great macro Radu!!!   AJ

I didn't think this was a bee at first Radu!!! I thought it was a hairy beetle!!! but it must have it's wings tucked in, and really 'wrapped up' in the stamens of this flower. Nice shot.  Do you mind me asking what lens you use??? always interested in Macro lenses!!!

cheers for now my friend, Gail

Thank you all of you for visit here and nice words,appreciate a lot.

Gail,I used for this macro I did sigma70mm,is a very sharp lenses but with not so easy focus control,the clarity field is very short,best performances there are after I saw between f8-11,if the subject is enough flat can be used lower aperture,or depend on what want to do.My opinion after using this lens is that a lenses bigger than 100mm is a better choice.

Hi Radu, I like the details of this creature. Is this a beetle or a bee? no sure about it, but it looks more like a beetle. Thanks for sharing with us not only this beautiful image, but the lens you used. I Also, want to share with you and all,  that I  bought at Sigma macro lens 105mmm for Nikon, I had taking some photos with it. It is a good lens, a little bit heavy, the best perform for me is between f/8 to f/13, and not bigger apertures as I was used with my macro 50mm canon lens. Also I have found with this sigma lens a little bit difficult to achieve very sharp focus handholding the camera.

I want to thank you Radu, because you always share with us your knowledge and techniques with no problem at all. :)

I would be waiting for your next images, you always have more beauty and excellent work to share with us.

Warmest regards,

LuDa

Luisa,you are right this is a beetle and just first dozy before uploaded is a bee,I never see me too one like this with so nice hair all around.Thank you for comment.

A fascinating shot Radu, The beetle and the position make this quite interesting. 

Looks like it is really into the pollen.

I'll take a chance on it being some sort of Hairy Flower Scarab Beetle.
