busy in the summer garden

Ece, the colors and bokeh alone are enough to make this image stand alone. But the subject and area of intended focus are tough to see...the stem is a bit distracting and the bee is not standing out well from this perspective. You could just blur the bee and make this an example of luscious bokeh:)

Virgil, this was actually intended as a puzzle :D You have to do some searching to see the action (frozen though it might be)...

 

Honestly, I agree with you that it could have been executed much better. I still liked it enough to want to share. And the feedback is always very helpful for the next attempt. I appreciate it very much.

Ece - I like this one a lot. I have come back to it several times - your intriguing puzzle works!

My eye is normally disturbed by large oof areas in the foreground, but this time I think I am accepting everything oof as background - even though the single petal crossing in front of the sharpest stem clearly tells me otherwise.

Had this been my picture, I might have cropped out the foreground flower and leaf that are just peeping into the bottom of the frame.

Well done!

Regards

Alan

Stephen, Thank you for your generous comments and feedback. I appreciate the input very much.

 

Alan, I appreciate your looking in and your very kind words and helpful input. I see what you mean about the crop. In my mind's eye, I saw them together forming a loop, and that's my reason for what's kept in the image. But I see that your approach would work to highlight the action, and I will try that too. Thank you very much!

 

Regards,

Ece
