    Just love these macro photos. I am a real fan of the bumblebee and rescued a whole hive this summer. The flowers are stunning too,is that a hollyhock? So pretty!

    Incredible and beautiful. Bees are something I don't like but I would hang these on my wall.

    Yes, please! What lens did you use for these shots? I see from your gear page that you have the 18-55mm and 55-200mm. Did you use one of these or did you use an actual macro? I am having trouble getting such detailed shots with my telephoto! Absolutely beautiful shots! Please let the rest of us know how you did it!
