Which one do you like best? I took these shots in the morning, when the bees were less aggressive. I am scared of bees.

    Well they ain't mammals, birds or lizards so I'm gonna move this to other cool shots.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    the colors are great, so I hate to lose them in B&W. The trick is to make them look different than just a bunch of boxes.

    I like #2 the best, with a shallow DOF. But what if you got wayyyy down low in front of all of them, and then shot up towards the trees with a wide angle? That might make them look like skyscrapers, which could be really cool.
    The goal of my photography is is the effective, original communication of a feeling expressing truth, beauty, or love.

    Thanks. That's a good idea. I have to do it real early, before the bees get active. The other day it was really foggy in the avocado grove, and the pickers were picking. I should have taken a photo of that. I could barely see them, and I think that would be a cool shot.
