Fascinating capture with great DOF. The focus and sharpness are right on the bee. Can I ask what f-stop and shutter speed you used on this? Thanks-Gunther #60044

This is one of the best macro shots that I have ever seen. #60057

Johann, I missed your origianl post but am pleased it was chosen as a finalist. Great shot!! #62433

Johann Reiser May 26, 2019

Murry,

thanks!
i´m sorry, but it would be quite hard for me uploading original files with my humble 36 kbs internet connection!
also I have to pay always LONGDISTANCE!!
as my Provider is 90 km away. here in Paraguay we are still quite backward in this area....
regards - Johann #62447

I am working on a web site for a very small local honey producer in Wisconsin, USA. They would like to use your "bee in flight" photo on their web site. Is it for sale?
