Bee lick

I took around 200 photo's down the coast this weekend. I was brutal in my culling though and deleted all but three images, two of which I still reckon I'll ditch. This was the only one I thought worth keeping.

I'm still rubbish on the daytime stuff...oh well...keep practicing.

Baz.

Barry - as someone who's primary photographic area is macro, you've done a *very* good job. Well exposed, sharp, plenty of detail. Composition could be better, but Bees are really very hard subjects imho and you've done a very very good job of capturing this. You should be well pleased.

Thanks Dave, that's very encouraging.

Bees are interesting, but too quick for my liking. Flies make very very subjects, so do most spiders.

Baz,

That's a corker. Straight to the pool room (or the wall of your observatory!)

Regards,
Humayun

P.S. I'd like to head out to that place again for a sunrise shoot one of these mornings, if you're up for it!

Ooh, I can't make this Saturday morning unfortunately.

I have an enormous day on Saturday. I'll be busy all day.

Any day after that I'm free. Even during the week will be fine. It's a bit of an imposition on weekdays, though. We'll leave it for a weekend coming up.

Regards,
Humayun
