Sunday Morning, driving home from work I did a Patrick and stopped by these flowers with butterflies and bees hovering around.This is my second post from the stop. I like how it turned out. Butterflies to come soon. I hope you enjoy viewing it as well.

Very nice. I love the cropping on the first picture and the last one is great that you got the profile of the bee.

Love these stunning close-up shots. The yellow is sunny and bright. Sharp detail with great DOF.

Wonderful post Michael! Your really enjoying that Macro lens and we get to enjoy the results as well!
I like the crops and you nailed the bee shots as well, very crisp and clear focus.
Thanks for sharing these
Michael

Lovely pictures Michael. They are so cheerful and bright.
Did you use a tripod or this was shot handheld?
