Two Bee Or Not Two Bee

Uploaded: September 08, 2012 06:21:37

Description

The bees absolutely love this kind of dahlia in the garden at Mill Creek Park in Youngstown, Ohio (they pretty much eschew the large, multi-layed petal variety). We saw as many as four on a single bloom on our stop yesterday. Rainy and blessedly cool here today (probably won't reach 70 degrees). Have a wonderful Saturday, everyone!

Exif: F Number: 7.1, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/500 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 400, FocalLength: 100.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS DIGITAL REBEL XTi

Cute play on the title. Such a gorgeous floral. You have such pretty colors. Love that dof, and for a special touch, you have the visitors. A beautiful work you did here my friend. #10315031
