Tried freezing this carpenter bee mid-air using my Canon EOS R6 paired with the EF 70–200mm f/2.8L IS III USM lens. Shot at 165mm, 1/5000 sec, f/9, ISO 8000, handheld in Manual mode with Pattern metering.
Loving how well the R6 handles high ISO while still giving me sharp details even at extreme shutter speeds!

Great shot! Freezing wing movement is often challenging with insects. Excellent!!! 👍
