Sweet!
Do you have any other angles?

No other angles
it was a real cool cloudy morning and I found this bee siting in a bush, and not moving.

Bands
Hey Bob - What psychedelic bands? I don't see anything but some white stripes... Heh. Heh. Awesome. No idea what it is, though.

Yeah, I love that effect, too. Really makes them stand out from other bees.
