Bee on Lavender

I sat around for far too long yesterday trying to get a sharp image of a bee on the lavender. Much more difficult than you'd think. A combination of the flightiness of the bees and the movement of the long stalks of lavender. I couldn't give up until I got something though!

oh yes, I often chase bees without a good shot to show for it - they seem to know when you point a camera at them!

I fully empathise with the difficulty of successfully photographing the rapid moving bees on lavender! A lovely composition, and I wouldn’t like to tell you how many failed attempts I’ve had 🤣

Lovely shot and he looks very busy. I totally get what you mean, although I haven't tried to capture the bees yet on our lavender.
