Bee snapshot to share from hiking in Tennessee

[Fotografer]

Here is a snap shot of a bee I saw while hiking in Tennessee. Just thought I would share it to go along with all the other nice photos of bees that have been posted on TPF as of late.</p>

<p>It's not a macro per say just a close up, my lens is not rated to do true macro shots. Feel free to C &amp; C as you feel led.</p>

<p>My own after thoughts:</p>
<p>1.) Cut off petals at the bottom.</p>
<p>2.) May be a little over saturated but for the most part that was on camera set.</p>
<p>3.) Background is a little noisy, may be a lower ISO.</p>
<p>4.) shallow depth of field may be too shallow but for me I liked the way it turned out and put the subject where I wanted it in the DOF.</p>
