Washing Up For Supper
Uploaded: October 26, 2007
This bee I saw at the zoo was moving slow because of the cold, so I was able to get nice and close to snap this picture (I was just making a quick trip with the boys so I only brought one lens). I didn't notice the position of its front legs until I went to upload it this morning -- looks like it's washing its "hands".
It was a cloudy day so the colors were bland and the photo didn't stick out much until I applied this high contrast b&w treatment.

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
