Detailed Description

A lovely slightly florescent orange bumble bee from Taiwan. So many combinations of color and form in each genus of bee!

USGSBIML Photoshopping Technique: Note that we now have added using the burn tool at 50% opacity set to shadows to clean up the halos that bleed into the black background from "hot" color sections of the picture.
