Bee Attraction


	Bee Attraction I took this today using my 100-400 mm L lens at 400 mm with IS activated, hand held, with a 31mm extension tube on. My settings were f5.6, 1/800, ISO 400. Shirley D. Freeman

Thank you, Chuck and Katherine. Most of our bees have that yellow (fur look) around here. It does match pretty good with his environment though. <><

Thank you, Jill, John and Nancy. So much appreciated. I am going to be off the grid for awhile. Where we are visiting I won't have internet access, and no phone reception! Hopefully something I can take a photo of though! <><
