Found this bee working over the prairie flowers at the Sugar Grove Nature Center. I tried to shoot looking straight down on the flower, but didn't quite make it.

Sure do like the sharpness and colors in the bee and the flower, John. This would be nicely improved if the extra flower tip at the bottom went away.

Good shot of the bee, John. +1 on Mark's suggestion.
