Ya I know... the bee is in dead center...
I was so close to it and to make sure the focus was right on target, I would take the shot the second my little focus green rectangle would be on the bee!!
I took 8-9 shots of it and I can see sometimes it wasn'T too happy with my presence.. it would fly up, kinda look at me, then go badk to the flower..
My camera was 3-4 inches away from the bee...
And ofc my camera was hand held...
I am not afraid of bees at all, but I felt a little concerned when it would look at me with eyes that said I was an annoying pain in the butt :rofl:

In order to post this picture here, I use Paint to get the image 25%...
I wish I knew of a good way to crop it without losing any quality..




And some people have a gard dog to watch their property..
We own a gard lion....

Haha, that second one made me laugh x'D Nice shot! :p An even easier way to resize them is to upload them to imageshack. Upon upload you can select the size you want them in. For instance whenever I upload my images I keep them at a constant 400x640 (or w/e it is).

I like them both,
except the second one doesn't really fit the description of nature,
aside from the grass and flower.

Idk maybe if that was a real cat. lol. Then we'd be talking. :D

The bee chose the flower...
Even if I had asked her to go on a white or yellow flower, I highly doubt she would have listened..
I'm lucky enough she let me get that close to get some macro shots :rofl:

Hmmm... I'm not sure that is what I mean..
I want to zoom in to get closer to the bee, kinda get rid of some background...
Not resizing it, that I can do with Paint...
But I almost need someone to take my hand through it...

@ Marie

Oh. I think you mean cropping the shot. It's actually very easy to do, just look for a tool that looks like this:
