Bee's eye view of a foxglove?

I guess this is the sort of view a worker bee may have when approaching a foxglove, although I suppose she would be more likely to see it divided into tiny fragments in view of the way her eye is constructed - ? a bit like a finished jigsaw? Who knows?!

Last night's rain droplets on the petals give it a little extra "oomph" I think.

Techy info: Even stopping down to f16 was not enough to get the whole depth of the flower in focus at once, so I used a focus stack to achieve this (thank you to Photoshop!); fortunately it was not windy so the flower condescended to stay still while I took 8 shots at increasing depth :-)

Best viewed large.
