Busy Bee

For bees, the flower is the fountain of life;
For flowers, the bee is the messenger of love.

You mix the beauty of this tulip and the poetry of Kahlil lGibran in one shot. FAV.

Wow -- what a great capture! And you must have been ready as that bee is as clear as can be! Did you use a narrow aperture setting? You have a great DoF here!

Amazing macro.

[Maggiemae]

The central focus on the flower and the bee is really so good! It is nice to see such high quality here!

@taffy I took several shots of the bee and this one was the sharpest. I'm really just getting the hang of using manual focus-that's my current challenge. Don't think this was narrow aperture- it was with my 50 mm lens at f 6.3 ISO 320 at 1/400th.

Great macro. I like the crispness of the yellow petals and then the gradual color changes and dof. Great quote, too!
