bee challenge

[audrey-g]

on saturday morning i saw this busy bee going around the herbs in my yard and decided to go into a mini challenge with it. after about 20minutes of sweat and about 30 shots i got this one. it was a race against time because the sun was coming up from behind the wall right into my face, so a few minutes later and the shot was impossible.
i feel i won the challenge considering my limitations in movement! (i'm 7months pregnant)

This is an excellent capture especially after the story. Well done Audrey, nice to give yourself a challenge. I hope all goes well with your forthcoming addition to your family. Thanks for sharing your winning challenge Audrey.

Jake.

What eye You have to catch at the fly. A very nice depth of field.

Very good shot. I know what you went through. We have tons of bumble bees when our red bud tree blooms. I decided to try and capture some of these dudes buzzing around working on the pollen and found out its not that easy. They won't bee still.

Hi Audrey,
Congratulations on a nice capture, I know how hard it is to lock onto these amazing creatures in flight. I was doing the same yesterday and it took me a while to get the shot below, One of these days I am going to do it right I am sure. And as you say with your limited mobility right now you did a really good job. Well done
