I was trying to get a shot of a Bee in a frozen state with my Beercan lens. But the shutter speed was too slow and the shot was not in focus. Leaning how to drive a technically advanced camera is not easy. The metering mode/ focus point is difficult to master but I keep trying. The only thing in this picture that’s perfect is the leaf at the forefront – but I love the overall effect. Not a bad attempt really, the focal length is 210mm (in Macro mode) and I’m standing about 50cm away from the subject. Anyway, it was a beautiful, warm, sunny Sunday afternoon and the lavender smelt wonderful, the wine was sweet – a nice time to take photos.
