Bumblebee in flight

I have to confess, I’m pretty chuffed about this one. I didn’t have the shutter speed quite fast enough to freeze the wings, but it’s by far the best flying bee I’ve captured. And it wasn’t on auto!
It’s so nice to see the pollinators out doing their thing among the spring flowers.

I’m not surprised that you’re chuffed. It’s a lovely inflight capture. You don’t really have too much time to adjust settings , they are so quick!

Perfect timing. You caught the inflight been so nicely framed by the two flowers.

Wonderful catch with the bee positioned between the pretty flowers.

good timing of the shutter click

Great shot- the bee looks like it's leaping from one blossom to the other.
