That bee image resonated more strongly with me than the honey sunrise, and I didn’t think about black in the bee at all. I would argue that most people think of bees as being primarily yellow. I love that the dress is flimsy, which I visualized as thin, like bee wings. Some image preferences depend on the reader’s imagination, experiences and assumptions, which I realize is a very deconstructive belief on my part.
