The Bee And The Dalea Flower

I've been trying to get this shot for days now, ever since my Monterrey Blue Dalea came into bloom and the bees started to congregate. But focus is so critical both for the bee and the flower, then the position of both and the right lighting. It's a wonder after about 400 photos I got one I could work with, it's hell being a want-to-be perfectionist, something that can never be truly realized I'm afraid ;o)
