What's The Buzz

105mm,
flowers,
insects,
photography,
work
I did something I normally don't do - I stalked a honeybee.
My daughter would be running, screaming from the tree, but the bee isn't hurting anyone and needs to get pollen.
I just wish he would steadily hover above the flower, thank you.
[The picture I got of the bee hovering was out of focus. Into the delete bin it went]
I had to settle for this one instead - the only slightly sharp keeper of the 5 or so pictures I snapped.
Next time, I'll try 3D tracking with my focus point. Maybe it will yield a more accurate focus with the moving bee.
Fortunately, static flowers are not a problem:
Shot during my lunch hour at work. Yes, they are somewhat used to the fact that I randomly wander around with my camera in tow.
I recently did the same thing and my daughter Taryn was nearby and actually DID run. haha. I am a real newbie with my dslr and didn't really get any shots that I thought were "post worthy". Your photo is beautiful. =)
