the photo is beautiful and the fly is not blurry at all. Yes it's a fly! Look at the eyes, they are very different from bee eyes. These flies imitate bees to be protected against birds and other predators

yes, the insect in this beautiful picture is a bee mimic (for starters, note the Club-like antennae and only one pair of wings...bees have thinner, longer antennae and two pairs of wings). The insect in the photograph appears to be a harmless (to humans!) Syrphid Fly, also known as a Hover Fly or Flower Fly (Order Diptera, Family Syrphidae is my guess since Flies in this group resemble bees/wasps in appearance) Very beautiful photograph! I like it!

this is a beautiful photo. About: "Looks more like a fly than a bee." I cannot understand this comment, I've never seen flies that had yellow stripes on their bodies, but it may be true that it doesn't look like a normal bee, as it is not hairy, and it doesn't look like a wasp either...
