Bumblebee on flower


I was quite happy with this shot...it is completely luck as the bumblebee was not still for over 2 seconds at any time.  It was busy, busy, busy!

This is a magnificent image. I totally agree, trying to get the bee in focus is quite difficult since they are always moving. This is gorgeous. Beautiful color and perfect detail. I love it!

I am nearly overcome by the desire to pet them when I see them. Probably not a good idea. Great picture!

Great photo. As the golfer Gary Player used to say "The more I practise, the luckier I get!".

A beautiful macro of both flower and bee. So fascinating to see everything up close. I always think it gives our flying critters personality :)

It is an exquisite shot and the bumble bee cooperated for you. Not sure I've ever seen a bee so clearly in a pic.
