First off, apologies for the horrible pun of a title.

Now, onto the photo. I took it today at the mimosa tree in my front
yard. I did some experimenting to see what kind of setup I need. I
would've liked the bee to have been a bit sharper, but I though maybe
the blur would lend a sense of motion. Just not sure if it works.

I'm guessing I'm going to have to bump up the ISO and shutter speed
enough to compensate for another aperture stop at f/9 to get a little
more DOF.

I'd appreciate any comments or suggestions anyone has to offer.

Thanks!

Nicely done. Great separation of the bee & the flower from the background.

The flower is beautiful, but it is a mistake to plant a mimosa tree next to where you park your car.
