Good capture, I know the feeling - I have a similar capture of I believe the same bee and I struggled to bring the blue sheen out of it.

However, the temperature at the time on the Greek island we were visiting was a staggering 44 degrees and I was struggling just a little lol

Best wishes,
Steve

Many thanks for your kind remark on "Eerie night"

Wow, I have never seen this type of bee before. I like how you have managed to capture the pollen scatter over him. Excellent. Judi
