Okay.. this one looks different from the one I posted last night, I was hoping to see if this is yet another species of tropical bee.

Thanks,

Great shot!
Just wanted to drop a line and say it was a great photo Charles! Do you use a special filter and a macro lens?
Keep up the nice shots!

Thanks
Jason, I appreciate the comment and I just use the Canon 180L, no filters, once in a while I use a reversed lens setup and the 2x teleconverter for those really close up shots.

Thanks again,

Charles
