Thanks everyone for the nice comments!

Lovely shots both of them but I think that the bee one gets the nod

I am really taken with the first picture, centering the butterfly worked exceptionally well. One almost has to look for it surrounded by all that color, this seems to add to the picture.

Two beautiful captures. The first suffers a little bit from the high contrast. These type shots are best under low contrast lighting. But you've captured the butterfly in a nice pose.

Really like the bee shot; looks like you used flash on it. Really makes the bee stand out and it is very sharp.
I might suggest cropping a bit off the left or right to make for a less centered composition. :thumbup:

AWWW CRAP! you just put my bee shot to shame... guess its time to whip out the macro lens again before summer ends.

In all seriousness. great shots

Very nice shots. I give the nod to the bee. Raymond has seen his share of bees as well.

Thanks for the comments... I'm terrible about centering things. I keep forgetting the rule of thirds
