Virescent Green Metallic Bee
posted by Andy
I got a ton of macro photos this holiday weekend, but this is my favorite so far. After a stressful Sunday morning of dealing with a sick dog and an emergency visit to the vet I noticed this fellow nosing around next to the driveway. So, I took a mental break and followed the bee with a camera for a bit.

Umm...WOW!!
That is incredible. What a beautiful exposure.
Okay, I gotta know... what lens?
Will, I've got an old pentax 50mm lens attached backwards to a 50mm prime lens using a reverse mount ring. In the past I couldn't get a decent image with this, but after playing around with the f-stop and flash I finally got a combo that works. The only drawback is the dark vignette it adds around the outside, which I have to crop out.
It's so SHarp! Great shot.
GREAT shot! What a beautiful insect!
