If I were a bee these flowers would look pretty yummy to me! I did no processing at all on this shot this is right from the camera and to my photoblog.
I was shooting photos around the house the other day and was zoomed way in on this flower with my new Tamron 70-300 lens when I saw a bee starting to buzz around it. I quickly aimed the camera to the flower he was flying towards and ended up getting this shot. It is the first time I have taken a picture of a bee in flight this close before and I like how you can even see the bee’s antennas and wings.
I took this photo last weekend while testing my new Tamron 70-300 lens. I was taking a macro shot and I think it came out really well. As a surprise bonus I got a bee buzzing by that came out pretty clear in the photo. It is on the right hand side of the picture in case you did not see it.
