Swallowtail with Bee

: Swallowtail with Bee; At the entrance to Frozen Head State Park, there is an island of flowers that invites hundreds of butterflies and bees. In the workshop, we were taught a technique that retained some color in a B&W print. It is an addicting process that reveals some really nice results.; Created by: Dshaw.; Tools Used: Nikon D70 w/70-300mm lens; Created on: July 2005; Image Views: 1,170; Average Views per Day: 0.8; Image Number: 16204

echoing all the other comments, sorry to be so late with mine, can't think how I missed this one earlier, it's very lovely, and I'd like to know more about the technique involved

Great blending of colors and B&W. Catching a bee and a butterfly in the same well composed shot is truly amazing.

This is so lovely. Nice and dramatic. I love how the colours are soft and darker near the bee's and butterfly. Well blended and a great photo.

Very nice..again the selective coloring draws your eye to what the photographer really wants you to notice.
