Bumbly Bee

Canon 7D, 100mm Macro Lens

There's so many things I love about this image. The detail on the wings of the bee, the fly sitting up on top of the plant, and the spider web leading out of the image.  I only saw the fly and the web when the image came onto my computer - until then I was only concentrating on photographing the bee!
