Description
I found this honeybee right after a light rain shower, and being able to get a tight portrait like this one is the reason I go looking after the clouds let up. I used another flower as a backdrop for the flash (thanks Mark!Tech Specs: Canon 1D MKIII (F11, 1/250, ISO 100) + an MPE-65mm macro lens (@5x) + an MT-24EX macro twin flash (-1/3 FEC).

Very little evidence of rain on this little guy, but the detail is amazing. And the colors draw you in. Wow.

Would have loved to see the title in the back drop as he is caught in the rain. But great shot with the macro. [link]

That scene is 5.62mm wide by 3.74mm high -a drop of rain would fill up about half the frame. I'm good, but I'm not that good
