So sorry to hear that your team lost the critical match and your season is over--best wishes for next year!
So glad that you came home to the fanfare over your banner though it is well deserved and I hope that it helps to know how much we all were adoring the wonders of this photo while you were playing cricket

Thanks Dirt. I'm thanking 'Dirt'!! I actually live in a lot of it!! My 'dirt' means 'dust', not 'soil' or 'earth' or 'mud'. Lot of this at home which is by the main road with a very heavy traffic! Anyway, thanks for the reply and the appreciation this photo deserved.
From this I also learnt that it is not common for someone to photograph a bee from its front which is also what made the photo all the more special, keeping aside the sharpness achieved!
Our team enjoyed being together even though we lost. We meet again next year, 2017.
