It looks like he is raising his claw or hand. This would be a great photo for child's class and appreciation of nature, bees etc. Never seen this before good detail and unique.

Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in New Hampshire while walking on a trail

Time

It was about mid-day.

Lighting

The sun was out and was high in the sky

Equipment

At the time I was using a Panasonic mc-fz18, which is a high zoom fix lens. The lens was made by Leica.

Inspiration

I saw the be on the plant so I decided to shoot it. Cautiously I moved close to the bee. I was shooting macro and I believe I was close enough that the bee saw his reflection on my lens then raised its arm to it.

Editing

I always process my raw data thru Panasonic's Silkypics then thru Corel Paint Shop Pro. Mostly I enhance the contrast as I do to most of my photos then I will do some cropping if needed.

In my camera bag

I usually try to travel light so I do not bring my bag to often.

Feedback

Be patience.
