Pollen Party! by stray_shooter

Pollen Party!

There has been a mysterious disappearance of honey bees lately. Based on this garden they appear to be making a comeback.
Wonderful closeup details, l enlarge the image to see it in all its glory , looks even better, lovely focus, colour and bokeh effect, super shot Ron;)

Nice shot. Please send this bee and friends down our way.....Yes, where are the bees these days? We haven't had apricots on our two trees for two years now... no bees to pollinate.

@pcoulson Y'know to be honest, I wasn't all that thrilled with the depth of field. Even at f/13, it's a bit too shallow for my taste. Still much to learn about exposure when it comes to the macro lens. But thanks for the encouragement!

@gilbertwood @dianeburns Thanks Denise and Diane. I can always count on you.

@aglennc Yes, Anita, I heard the populations are declining everywhere. The scientists have labeled it CCD, colony collapse disorder. Of course, everything is a disorder now. But they don't really know why. Sad.

@stray_shooter Your right about DOF in macro Ron, I have now accepted wide apertures still give shallow depth of fields using a macro lens, spent ages checking using the preview (DOF) button before taking the shot to no avail;)
