Very nice indeed.
I like both the eye and the leg.
Crisp and sharp...

Very beautiful! Seems very impractical to have hair growing out of the eye ball. :shock:

Hairs in eye.
Surprising yes but...
...I guess the image can be "error corrected" by the bee visual system, to allow/ignore hairs. Lots of little lenses.
The hairs could still give important proximity information, warn about parasites etc. It has no lids.
