1. in what area is critique to be sought?
Color and Composition.

2. what one hopes to achieve with the piece of work?
Show the hardworking side of a bee and how's the process is done.

3. under what circumstance is the picture taken? (physical conditions/emotions)
Went Sentosa Flower on a sunny day for some flower shot, instead spotted a few bees collecting pollen. Took this shot without flash as the sun is bright and hot. My first time looking at bee in a near distance as I usually walk away from it because it sting. Wanted to show that they are born a hardworking insect instead of a bug with sting.

4. what the critique seeker personally thinks of the picture
I think it's too saturated. That's all.

hihi

just wanted to say that its a pleasing macro, at least for me :D

Now sure if it helps but it seems a tiny bit underexposed. Don't really feel that its oversaturated (at least on my screen), the bee looks like it could help with a little more contrast & saturation. Flower parts seems vibrant enough though.

My 2 cents & u deserve credit for nailing this shot :)
