A flower and a bee

I went out with my 200mm lens today. I was finally able to get some nice smooth background blur for my flower and a bee too. Couldn't get quite close enough on the bee, but they have chased me on this trail before. And, I'm kind of scared of them.

    Thanks Musky Dude and Ginger. I'm sorry I could not get back to you sooner, but I have not been able to get into dgrin for two days. Didn't work on any of my browsers.

    I like the opposite colors on the first one myself. I think I need to get a monopod to take on my hikes. I can't seem to hold still enough to get them really sharp. I know the spot focus was right on, but they still don't seem as sharp as they should be.

    Thanks for looking in and commenting.iloveyou.gif
