            Bee is sharp throughout; good position and depth of field; petals of flower lack detail
      
    Maker's notes:
        
            This image was shot handheld with my Canon 60D. I used aperature priority to ensure depth of field (f/11). I pushed the ISO to 800 to get enough shutter speed 1/160 to compensate for hand holding. I used a Canon macro zoom lense set to 135mm. It was late afternoon and sun was shining.
