Bee Mine
Uploaded: July 13, 2014 | Entered: July 13, 2014 05:14:39
Bumblebees the size of Texas were groggily soaking up pollen on select flowers at Mill Creek Park (Youngstown, Ohio) yesterday. They were slow enough that I overcame most of my fright and got fairly close. Have a wonderful Sunday, everyone!

Now this is an IMPRESSIVE macro dear friend!!! Bees are a fav of mine and I have found they don't seem to even be aware of me when they are busy gathering so I lost any fear along time ago. <>< #11085088Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
