Pancolar 1.8 80mm is the most famous of the series, made by Zeiss Jena. All shot fully open!

This is the most challenging task, to get the bee in focus on fine stems of small flowers when there is such a narrow depth of focus!

Interestingly, you have achieved a unique presentation with a sense of a split second capture of the bee's transience there! The blurred linear oblique background does just that!

I timidly would offer the slightest vignetting in the corners and edges, barely perceptible, to complete the magic.
