Which macro Bee photo do you like better?

Thanks...I ended up using a tighter crop, so that part was not as distracting.

Its not as close, but I think I nailed the focus a little better in this one...testing to see...

I like #2 better. #1 has an out of focus plant part in front of the bee.

bees are hard to shoot.

Even mine come out iffy.

if these are "iffy" then i should give up now,
without getting tooooo technical, could someone tell me how i could have made this one better.
cheers chris.

The tighter crop did it for me. You had detail to spare. The full view was distracting to me too. Both fantastic! My guess on the bee is: Sweat bee (Halictus sp.)
