I'm sort of into insect nudes, and I hope others are too (uhm...in a photography-oriented way of course). Here's my bee of the day and also my own analysis of the picture. What do you think?
My own photo analysis of the bee.

Welcome to the forum. This shot is a heck of a start here. Love the wonderful detail in Mr. Bee here. :thumbup:
yes it's a beautiful shot. I love the colours. the white and yellow flower make the perfect backdrop. it's too bad that the right wing was clipped a bit but that's a minor nit. :)
Lovely shot here!
I'm not much into macro/proxi photography but I sure enjoy this one!
Job well done!
Great clarity and the DOF helps to give a sense of height for the bee above the flower.
a terrific shot, crisp with good lighting, but it's not a bee. It's a hover fly. :)
Thanks for the feedback. But hear this, it's not actually a bee, it's a fly, specifically a Syrphidae Syrphus Ribesii. What a man can learn on a saturday evening,hehe. I'm just glad I'm not a biologist at this point.
Bambi; Agree that the clipped wing could/should have ben avoided.
Extremely strong image - welcome to the forum!
