I'm still in a bee phase. Recently I've been trying to catch them in midair. My success rate is very low. :)

    I agree with Taz. I'm not sure how close you are to your subject, but have you ever been stung by these lovely little creatures?

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    "I'm not sure how close you are to your subject, but have you ever been stung by these lovely little creatures?" I'd guess two to three inches. No, I've never been stung by a bee (by wasps and yellowjackets, yes). I should probably feel a little more apprehensive about bees than I do since we now have Africanized bees that are much more aggressive than ordinary honeybees. Thanks for the comment.

    Don...

    Well done. Nice capture of an illusive little bee on a mission.

    Great DoF and Bokeh. Pastel colors in the background are beautiful as well!

    Cheers,
