Nice one! What model Canon camera did you use? I'm looking for a DSLR right now.

I used a Canon Kiss 2 (which is apparently sold as a Rebel 450 outside Japan). I believe that this model has now been replaced by something newer.

Great pic, K99! Well done. (good gear helps, though...) And thanks for sending it in. I get fed up of seeing women in pic of the day, so this is the bee's knees.

Great photography K99. But I'd rather see a cute Japanese girl dressed in a bee costume!

Great photo! I've taken some close-up photos of bees myself. Without getting stung!
