Hi there Randy....I like to see bee shots with more of the head showing,
Shooting them from the back sorta takes away from the image.

Bee's are not easy to shoot if they don't sit for long, you will notice that some bees will sit for quite some time where as others will touch base and take off and repeat that cycle......those one's are not easy to photograph at all.

...... your little lizard friend has quite the sly look about him doesn't he

You got good colour in your shots, with the bee I would go for front or profile shots, and the little Lizard, he would look great even closer.

Thanks for sharing.......... Skippy (Australia)

Randy, these are great
Very nice color, exposure and comps. Hard to choose a favorite as they are all splendid. Great work.
