I don't see anything at all except a sentence.

These are fantastic shots, glad you got them up. I think my favorite is the bee/wasp thing (yeah, I'm definitely not an entomologist). Interesting looking insect on an equally interesting flower. Very nice focus and DOF on all of these.

Thanks for the comments. As you might guess these are from the spring before heat wave. Not sure what the insect is, crazy legs sticking up over his head and all.
