Nice.
I caught a bumble bee at work Thursday on a day trip to Point Reyes NS.
We got a day without fog, but lots of wind. The image is cropped to hide
my hand holding the stem. I would guess the wind at 15 mph, gusting to
30+. The bloom was moving maybe two feet as it swayed back and forth
with the wind. A fast shutter speed can stop the motion, but not keep it
in focus.

The G11 lens/sensor aren't bad at full pixel.
