    The flower is the ever beautyful black knapweed. Not sure if the insect is a kind of fly or a kind of bee but it's my first encounter with that very interesting one.

    Very nice angle on the blossom and super focus on this little guy, Yves. Beautiful composition and tones too.

    Terrific shot Yves. The flower and bug float beautifully above the background. Love the vivid colours.
