Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee.

This morning I found a new spot blessed with bees. This time far away from thorns.
The shoting was uneventful and I'm finally pleased with the result.
Hope you like it too!

I love them to flavio, beautifully focused and exposed right down to the hairs on his legs, much better than the thorns.

wonderful close up shot capturing the light really well. Overall a beautiful shot. It's amazing that 1/1600 can't fully freeze the wings....mind boggling!

Beautiful Flavio! Well composed and presented, You have to see the larger size to grasp how well focused and crisp this is. Love the flower the bee and the creamy background.

Thanks for your kind works, Michael.
It took me some time to get a fix on that lovely spot with the morning light coming from the side-back.

Thanks, Patrick.
You know I set my P&S in M mode I fixed the shutter speed to 2000 but the camera knows better and adjusts itself to a max 1600. Fortunately, it is still good enough. Overall, I'm happy with my camera but I am dreaming with a serious upgrade.

This is a lovely capture flavio. Nice detail too. I love the way the natural light of the sun touches the flower. This is a lovely piece of work buddy.
