Happy New Year! I hope 2009 is good to you and yours.
In the last year I've posted 328 posts and shown almost 500 photos. It was a tough choice for today's theme! I really couldn't decided on a photo, Phoebe had several dozen photos that she thought were worthy, but in the end I settled for this one (it was on her list!) I first posted the photo on Monday 14th July, under the title 'Bee-n Waiting'. Here is the text from that post - "The sun finally made an appearance, nature burst into life for a few hours and I got my photo. I'd been wanting to get a photo like this for a while and at last my camera, a flower and a bee all met up! This big bumble bee was busy collecting pollen from a delphinium. The rain stopped and my wait was worth it. I hope the bee felt the same."

Wow, Marley! It's a great shot! Happy new year!
The blue and the bee are amazing in this photo. Congratulations and thanks for sharing 2008 from Cheltenham. Wishing you and yours a happy, healthy 2009.
Fabulous! And very appropriate for new year too. Do you think bees can see pink elephants? :)
Happy theme day!
I am always amazed that you can get great photos like this. Happy New Year.
Always tough choosing your own pics, but that's a great one. Happy & healthy new year wishes from London.
Very Nice Shot!!!
May 2009, be filled with lots of bees and sunlight!

Marley, you couldn't have made a wrong choice for theme day because you DO have so many worthy shots. But, this IS a stunning choice. I love the yellow and blue together, the fuzzy texture of the bumbley bee, and those sleek wings. The composition is also attractive. I love it.
Hope 2009 has much happiness and good health in store for you!

Wishing you a very happy New Year, Marley. You show so many good photos and I'll look forward to more next year.
Marley, a very good choice....hope your New Year's celebration didn't produce pink elephants!
It's bee-autiful of course. Excellent image, just love it along with the blog.

Spectacular, bzzz! Fabulous, bzzz! Wonderful, bzzz! A great choice, showing your prowess and patience!
I want to thank you very much for the kind comments you left on my humble little blog last year although I've been really terrible at commenting back. I won't even add this to my list of good resolutions as I am sure I won't be able to keep that one.
A very Happy New Year to you, Marley! Bonne année!!! :)
A great choice! Even among all the beauties in the Theme Day gallery, this one really pops!
I hope the new year brings you many more sunny days. Thank you for your kind visits.
What great color and detail...a real WOW photo. Bees are so technically challenging.
Great way to start off 2009!
I've bee-n waiting all day to see your photo, and, altho I arrived late, I am most impressed. It's a honey of a shot. Guess I'll buzz off now. PS. I really like it...it's great!
Whoa, that's a real stunner. Do you have a macro lens? I am getting one soon. No wonder you chose this for your best shot.
Magnificent
Happy New Year
Wow, a great macro. Happy 2009!
