Default 15 minutes of hardwork

It took me 15 minutes of sweat and over 30 snaps to get a few nice ones. U know its hard to catch those creatures. They are so mobile. Well, here's a couple. I enjoyed it, Hope u too.

Nice work rajesh. The first one in flight is excellent. Flight refuelling probe at the ready. Nice detail in the second one too. You are right about hard to get. I keep trying but not a good one yet. You did an excellent job my friend.

Jake.

Very nicely done Rajesh. That first one is amazing with the bee suspended next to the flower. Great work!

So, for only 15 minutes of sweat, you are now among the select few that have gotten a great bee shot. I'd say it was a small price to pay for the outcome. Great job!
