I think the flower is a wild rose and I think the bee is a sweat bee or green metallic bee, but I'm not sure on either account.

Hi

A smashing shot - love the composition and positioning of the little bee

The flower does look like a wild rose, Rosa rugosa Rubra perhaps, not sure about the bee Id though

Rosa rugosa Rubra

Fine composition - the curve of the anthers and the bee position are excellent.
