Default pleasure of the flower

the pleasure of the flower

pleasure of the flower

World of life rejoice the sunlight and cause the pleasure of the flower to open wide.

Nice capture of what looks like a mating dance between two workers on a honeycomb dance floor.

You know I've been called a B myself a few times ha ha , great shots these Beach , and as much as I think bees normally add to an image I think I like the sphere on its own its just so symmetrical , awesome work mate .

wonderful composition .. great details in the flower/bees, love the BG , beautiful image.

I am thinking, should the sunlight cause the flower to open wider, it might be a little easier for those fat honeybees to get the good stuff out !

another " something a little different " Steve .. and a great addition to the long list of Original Photo combined with the written ( or sung ) word .. thanks for showing it !
